How to Make Mandarin Orange Pineapple Cake Aka Pig Pickin Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare a 15.25 oz box of yellow cake mix according to package directions, but substitute one 11-ounce can of mandarin oranges, drained, for the water.
- Beat the drained mandarin oranges into the cake batter using an electric hand mixer until well combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- While the cake cools, prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, gently stir together one 20-ounce can of crushed pineapple, drained; 8 ounces of thawed whipped topping; and 3.4 ounces of instant vanilla pudding mix.
- Once the cake is completely cool, spread the pineapple topping evenly over the top.
