Tangerine Orange Cake

By: Leslie Tackett 
"This is the same as an Orange Cake with Orange Topping but made with tangerine-orange juice. It's so good, I have to ask my husband to hide it so I won't pig-out on it. Can be made as a Bundt cake or muffins!"

Original Recipe Yield 1 - 10 inch Bundt pan or 24 cupcakes
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 1 (3 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
  • 3/4 cup tangerine juice
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  •  
  • 1/3 cup tangerine juice
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 10 inch Bundt pan or line a muffin pan with paper cups.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the cake mix and instant pudding. Add the tangerine juice, oil, eggs and lemon extract, mix until well blended. Pour into the prepared pan or pans.
  3. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cake springs back to the touch. For cupcakes, bake for 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing from pan to cool completely.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine the remaining tangerine juice, sugar and butter over medium heat. Stir frequently until the mixture is smooth. Drizzle over cooled cake or cupcakes.

I think that the "white sugar" in the frosting was meant to have said powdered sugar.

Made as muffins. Great, although the icing was runny.
