This recipe has seen better days. I have no idea how it came to be so discolored and delicate – but I hope it means that it was a recipe that was made often. And a recipe made often must mean that it is good. It reads like another version of the earlier posted Pineapple Mandarin Cake. So now you have options!
No Name Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
4 eggs
¾ cup oil
1 can mandarin oranges (chopped) plus juice
Mix in a mixer according to cake mix directions (probably 2 minutes)
Flour and grease three 9″ round (or 8″) cake pans.
Bake at 350 degrees 15-17 minutes
Icing:
1 large can crushed pineapple in own juice
1 vanilla instant pudding/pie filling mix
1 large Kool Whip
Mix pineapple (and juice) and pudding with mixer. Fold Kool Whip before spreading on cake.

Yes. But I will substitute more mandarin oranges for the pineapple.
I love the recipes you’ve been sharing! Can’t wait to try them!
Thank you! It feels great to “liberate” them. You have to let me know if you make one of them.
I have made this exact recipe before and it is divine. It is even better after it has sat in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. A wonderful summer cake!
Ah, see, here it is. I’m reading from the beginning.
I am surprised by how many cake recipes Millie had that were basically “start with yellow cake mix…”
And the pudding & cool whip as icing concept is so good.
