Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For more orange flavor, substitute 1/2 teaspoon orange extract for the vanilla.
  • tip 2
    Create a different look the next time you bake this cake. Place cake wedges on dessert plates, spoon whipped topping on top and sprinkle with coconut or toasted almonds.
