28 oz cans mandarin oranges, drained and cut into small pieces (reserve some for decoration))
13.5 oz package instant vanilla pudding mix
18 oz container frozen whipped topping, thawed
Instructions
Follow the instructions on your cake mix packaging and bake two perfectly round layers.
Let the layers cool down completely then cut each layer in half so as to have 4 layers of cake.
Put the cream cheese and the confectioner’s sugar into a large bowl, and whisk together until soft. Add the crushed pineapple with juice and drained mandarin, saving some mandarin slices to arrange on the top of the cake. Add the dry pudding mix and the whipped topping.
Place one layer of cake on a serving plate and spread 2 spoonfuls of filling. Place another layer on top followed by more filling. After layering on the frosting, fill any gaps and use left-over mandarin slices to decorate your homemade cake creation. Place in the fridge to set for 2 hours, then enjoy!
