How to Make Orange Pineapple Delight Cake

  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, 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 (11 oz) can mandarin oranges, drained (reserve 1/4 cup juice), and 1/4 cup of the reserved mandarin orange juice.
  3. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. While the cake is baking, drain one (20 oz) can of crushed pineapple, reserving 3/4 cup of the juice.
  5. Once the cake is out of the oven, immediately pour the reserved 3/4 cup pineapple juice over the warm cake.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine the drained pineapple, 1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix, and 8 oz whipped topping. Mix until well combined.
  7. Let the cake cool completely before spreading the pineapple mixture evenly over the top.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the topping to set before serving.
