So, I realize how long it has been since I last posted, and I promised a pot roast recipe, which I do have the pictures of, just haven't gotten it on here. I will work on that. This recipe for Orange Juice Cake is wonderful. It is a favorite amongst the Corsini family. By Corsini family, I mean Ken, Katie, and Kevin loved this cake growing up, so I consider it an "old" family recipe of my mother-in-laws, Ronna. For the past 3 years I have made this cake for my mom's birthday because she just isn't a cake-and-frosting kind of girl. This cake is perfect because it compliments her tea quite well and she loves lemony things. Honestly, I haven't met anyone who doesn't love this cake. My one piece of advice: don't be lazy like me when mixing up the glaze - stir and stir until you get all the powdered sugar dissolved. It just looks prettier that way!
Orange Juice Cake
Ingredients for Cake:
1 package yellow or lemon cake mix (I like lemon)
1 small package instant lemon pudding
1/2 cup of oil
1 cup of orange juice
4 eggs
Ingredients for Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup of orange juice
2 tablespoons of melted butter
Beat all cake mix ingredients together for 2 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes in a greased oblong pan. While the cake is baking, mix up the glaze by adding ingredients to a bowl and whisking away until no lumps remain. After cake is pulled out of the oven take a toothpick and poke every 1 inch or so all around the cake and frost with the glaze while the cake is warm. You want the cake to cool a little before serving. Enjoy!
