Cranberry Sauce Cake

Diana Rattray
Top this cranberry sauce cake with an orange glaze or dust it with powdered sugar.

Ingredients:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 can (16 ounces) whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup orange juice concentrate, thawed, or use plain orange juice along with zest of 1 orange, if desired
  • 1 vanilla cake mix with pudding in the mix (18.25 ounces)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans, walnuts, or almonds
  • ---
  • Optional Glaze:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed, or fresh orange juice

Preparation:

Grease and flour a 12 cup Bundt cake pan. Heat oven to 325° . If you use a light-colored baking pan, heat oven to 350°.

Beat together the eggs, oil, cranberry sauce, sugar, and orange juice. Slowly beat in the cake mix until blended and continue beating on high speed for about 2 minutes. Fold in nuts and spoon into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean when inserted in center.
Drizzle with Orange Glaze or dust with powdered sugar.
For glaze, combine 1 cup confectioners' sugar with 2 to 3 tablespoons of thawed orange juice concentrate, or enough juice to create a thin icing consistency.

"I have made this cake several times. I have found that using the juice and zest of a fresh orange is much better than using the orang juice concentrate. The concentrate made the cake too heavy."
