Orange Juice Cake

this is so good!!!!!
1 package yellow cake mix with pudding
1 1/4 cups orange juice, no pulp
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 stick butter, unsalted
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup sugar

Follow normal instuctions on cake mix, only substituting pulp free OJ for water.

Bake in a bundt pan. Make sure you grease the pan.

Icing:
Combine over low heat, butter, orange juice and sugar.

While cake is hot, AND STILL IN THE PAN, poke holes in cake with a wooden spoon. Pour icing into holes. Let it cool, then pop out.

Can add powder sugar on top, I left it as is...yummy.

Leslie: thanks so much fo the recipe it's wonderful. It's a real nice change and very moist. I sometimes cook for large groups of people, I will use this for sure. Great with the orange sicle ice cream

your very welcome I love this cake

Can anyone tell me how much "1" stick of butter is? I see that in lots of recipes but have no idea how much you really need to use.

One stick of butter is equal to one half cup. In the states they package 4 sticks in a pound, individually wrapped. Very convenient!

Speaking of butter, I always use unsalted butter in my baking. IMO, regular butter adds extra salt to the recipe.

Thanks Windy for letting me know what '1' stick of butter is equal to. I buy my margarine for baking in 1/2 cup portions. So much easier. I will look for butter that way next time I am in the States.

Instead of the OJ you can use any can of "pie filling", try cherry!

Butter precut into sticks are available in Canada. Look in the dairy section where the butter/marg. is kept. I use it all the time when I bake. I buy mine at Fortino's but I'm sure Zehr's or Sobey's would have it as well.

me to, I use it for all cookin

Thanks SZQ for mentioning that you can buy butter in sticks right here in Ontario. I don't use margarine in all my baking so it is nice to know that I can get butter in sticks. Will be on the lookout for it next time I am at the grocery store.
