| orange creamsicle cake Posted: 4/6/2008 12:09:50 PM | this is a delicious cake and tastes nothing like the creamsicle cake in the box mix-it's so much better! this will remind you of the orange creamsicle ice cream bars and can also be made as a sugar free cake that tastes just as good as the regular recipe. great summer time cake!
1 (18oz.) lemon cake mix 1 envelope unsweetened orange kool aid 3 eggs 1 cup water 1/3 cup vegetable oil 2 pkgs. (3oz) orange gelatin 1 cup boiling water 1 cup cold water 1 cup milk 1 tsp. vanilla 1 pkg. (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding 1 (8oz) cool whip- thawed
In a mixing bowl, combine cake mix, drink mix, eggs, water and oil. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Pour into a 9x13 baking pan (does not have to be greased). Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Using a meat fork, poke holes in cake.
Cool for 30 minutes. In bowl, dissolve 1 pkg. gelatin in boiling water. Once it's completely dissolved, stir in the cold water. Pour over cake, cover and refrigerate for two hours.
In mixing bowl, combine milk, vanilla, pudding mix and the other dry gelatin. Beat 2 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes then fold in the cool whip. frost the cake with this. keep refrigerated.

| orange creamsicle cake Posted: 4/6/2008 12:24:55 PM | Here is a similar cake but with less "fat" and the sugar free version that jaycee4 mentioned;
* 1 box orange cake mix (Duncan Hines "Orange Supreme" works great!) * 10-oz Diet Orange Soda, Diet 7-Up, or a similar Diet Soda * 1 egg white * 2 (4-serving) boxes fat-free, sugar-free orange JELL-O * 1 box SF instant vanilla pudding * 1 cup hot water * 1 cup cold water * 1 cup fat-free milk * 1 tsp vanilla extract * 1 cup fat-free cool whip, thawed * 8.25-oz can mandarin oranges, drained and patted dry with paper towel.
Directions:
Mix cake mix, egg white and diet soda. Bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes or until toothpick comes out smooth in a greased 9x13 pan. Take cake out of oven, and poke holes all over the top. Let cool. Stir 1 package of orange JELL-O into 1 cup hot water until dissolved, and then add 1 cup cold water. Pour entire mixture over cake. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours. Mix vanilla pudding mix and other pack of (dry) JELL-O together. Add 1 cup of fat-free milk and 1 tsp. vanilla extract. Mix well. Fold in cool whip and use this mixture to frost cake. Top with mandarin oranges. Keep cake refrigerated. | |

| orange creamsicle cake Posted: 4/7/2008 12:52:01 PM | Jaycee4 that sounds quite yummy. I remember eating dreamcicles as a kid and loving them. Recently, we got an Orange Julius in a town I used to live in, in the local Dairy Queen. I also loved those. I might be wrong, but someone told me those were just orange juice blended with non-dairy creamer.
I am trying this cake. Thanks | |

In a blender, add a bunch of vanila ice cream, blend until smooth Add as much vodka as you can handle, blend some more. Add C-plus orange pop and blend again. Serve in a big glass with a straw. | |
