How To Make dreamy orange cake

  • Step 1
    bake cake as directed in a 13 + 9 in. pan,put on rack to cool
  • Step 2
    while cooling,poke holes all the way thru to bottom and allow to cool a few minutes more.
  • Step 3
    pour (we like Sunny Delight) over the top of the cake just as you do for Tres Leches,let it set for a few minutes and do it again until the cake has sopped up all the juice,it will be soggy.
  • Step 4
    while the cake is sopping up the juice,beat two cups of heavy cream w/mixer and while beating,add as much orange jello to the cream as you like( to taste )beat to medium peaks,also add 3/4 cup sugar while beating.
  • Step 5
    after cake is cooled,(the juice will help cool)frost cake w/whipped cream and sprinkle some of the orange jello all over the top.it's really good!
