Tropical Dream Cake

This cake recipe is simple, fast, and delicious.

I think it tastes like my Granny's mini cheesecakes.

Please try it soon. I promise you'll like it.

Tropical Dream Cake
1 box yellow cake mix
3/4 cup oil  - I like using coconut oil
3 eggs
1 can mandarin oranges and juice

Mix ingredients together and beat for 2 minutes. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Let cake cool completely.

Icing:
16 oz can crushed pineapple and juice  - I used a 20 oz can which is fine, too.
1 box (3 oz) dry instant vanilla pudding  - I used a 5 oz box which is fine, too.
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
9 oz. Cool Whip

Mix crushed pineapple, vanilla pudding, vanilla, and lemon juice together. Once combined, fold in Cool Whip.

Garnish with halved maraschino cherries (optional).
