How to Make Miss Minda's Super Sunshine Cake
- Preheat oven to the temperature specified on your box cake mix.
- In a medium bowl, combine one box (15.25 oz) of your favorite yellow cake mix, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 3 large eggs, and 1 (11 ounce) can of mandarin oranges, drained.
- Pour batter into a greased and floured 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake according to the time specified on the cake mix box (usually around 30-35 minutes). Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, it's done.
- Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack.
- While the cake cools, in a separate bowl, whip together 8 ounces of Cool Whip with 3.4 ounces of instant vanilla pudding mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add 1 (20 ounce) can of crushed pineapple, including its juice, to the Cool Whip mixture and gently fold to combine.
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously with the pineapple Cool Whip mixture.
- Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the frosting to set.
