Ingredients
1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
4 eggs
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup white sugar
1/4 cup orange liqueur
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 – 9 inch pans with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine yellow cake mix, eggs, mandarin oranges with juice, and oil. Beat well.
Divide batter into 2 – 9 inch round pans. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly tapped. Allow to cool.
To make the glaze: In a measuring cup combine 1/3 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir to dissolve sugar. Pour about 1/4 cup orange liquor into sugar-water mixture and brush onto cooled layers of cake.
