How to Make My Version Of A Sunshine Cake Ww Style

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix and 1 (12 oz) can diet lemon-lime soda. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Gently fold in 1 (11 oz) can mandarin oranges, drained, reserving about ½ cup of the segments for garnish.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  6. While the cake cools, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 oz light whipped topping (like Cool Whip) and 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix until smooth and fluffy.
  7. Option 1: Fold in the reserved ½ cup mandarin orange segments.
  8. Option 2: Arrange reserved mandarin orange segments on top of the frosted cake for decoration.
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously and enjoy!
