Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Orange soda
  • Eggs
  • Dry vanilla cake mix
  • Packaged orange gelatin
  • Instant vanilla pudding mix
  • Water
  • Milk
  • Pure vanilla extract
  • Frozen whipped topping
  • Oil
  1. Step 1

    Combine the orange soda with the dry cake mix and eggs in a large mixing bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Spread the batter into the pan and bake in a 350 degree pre-heated oven for 20 to 30 minutes.

    Mix the hot water with one package of orange gelatin in a small bowl and stir until the gelatin is dissolved, then add cold water and stir thoroughly.

  5. Step 5

    Pour the gelatin mixture over the top of the cake, and refrigerate the cake for a minimum of two hours.

  6. Step 6

    Combine the remaining package of orange gelatin with the vanilla pudding mix and add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly. Stir in the thawed frozen whipped topping.

  7. Step 7

    Frost the orange dreamsicle cake with the whipped cream mixture. Keep the cake in the refrigerator until you serve it.
