The other day my friend Amy called to ask for the yummiest dessert recipe I could think of. Needless to say, it's hard to narrow it down.  But this cake is so good in the spring and summer! After she made it, I had to make it myself! Mmmm.

Mandarin Orange Cake

For cake: 1 yellow pudding cake mix + 4 eggs
1 stick of butter
1/2 cup oil - whip all together
Whip in 1 can oranges with the juice
pour in 9x13 pan - bake 45 min. at 350 degrees

For topping: 2 sticks of cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 stick of butter
1 can crushed pineapple - drained
whip all together and spread over cool cake. 
top with cool whip and sprinkle coconut if you want.
refridgerate!
