How to Make Orange Soak Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Prepare your Duncan Hines cake mix according to package directions. Add 1 tablespoon of orange extract and 1 tablespoon of grated orange zest to the batter before mixing.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice, 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, and 1-2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cake is baked, immediately remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Gently poke holes all over the top of the warm cake using a toothpick or fork.
- Slowly pour the glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.
- Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
