Mandarin Orange Pig Picking Cake
Ingredients
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 2 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges, drained
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple
  • 1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius. To prevent sticking, lightly spray and dust 3 to 8 inch round cake pans with a non-stick cooking spray.
2
Next, prepare the cake batter by mixing it according to the package instructions. Add some juicy mandarin oranges and crunchy nuts to give your cake a delightful twist. Pour the batter into 3 to 8 inch round cake pans.
3
Place the prepared cakes in a preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until you insert a toothpick into the center of one of the cakes and it comes out spotlessly clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
4
For the filling, combine crushed pineapple with its juice in a large mixing bowl. Add some pudding mix to give it a creamy texture, then fold in some whipped topping until well combined. Spread the filling evenly between the cooled cake layers.
5
Chill your assembled cakes in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve.
