Things You'll Need:
- Yellow Cake Mix
- Orange extract
- Orange Marmalade
- Grated orange peel
-
Step 1
Start by making the yellow cake mix according to the directions on the package. The one I used called for a stick of softened butter, water and 3 eggs.
-
Step 2
Grate 2 teaspoons of orange peel, and add that to the cake mix.
-
Step 3
Fill the cap of orange extract twice and add that to the cake mix. Bake the cake (or cupcakes) according to the directions on the package.
-
Step 4
That's it! This cake will have a great orange flavor. To finish it off, try making a frosting with 2 sticks of softened butter, 6 tablespoons of orange juice, and 4 and 1/2 cups of confectioners sugar. I sometimes also sprinkle this cake with coconut, and you can also use orange marmalade between the layers if you've made a layer cake. Soften the marmalade in the microwave for a few seconds if you've had it in the refrigerator to make it easier to spread.
