- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease and flour a 10 to 12-cup Bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the yellow cake mix, instant lemon pudding mix, vegetable oil, orange juice, and eggs. Mix for about 2 minutes.
- Pour the cake mix into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, and the cake is just starting to pull away from the sides of the pan.
- While the cake is cooling in the pan, let’s make the glaze.
- In a small saucepan, combine the powdered sugar, orange juice, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat until the butter has melted, stirring frequently.
- Use a skewer or toothpick to poke holes in the cake.
- Pour the warm glaze over the cake while it is still in the pan. It might seem like a lot of glaze, but keep pouring.
- Allow the cake to cool for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, or until it’s cool and most of the glaze has been absorbed.
- Invert the cake onto a serving platter and let it cool completely.
- This cake is best served after it has rested for about 8 hours.
