# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat oven to 175°C. Generously grease a 12-cup Bundt pan and set aside.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, granulated sugar, oil, water, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Blend on low speed for 30 seconds, then increase to medium speed and mix for 2.5 minutes until smooth and cohesive.
03 -
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre emerges clean.
04 -
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully invert onto a serving plate and allow it to cool completely before glazing.
05 -
In a medium bowl, blend powdered sugar, orange juice, and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the glaze rest for 1 minute to allow any bubbles to rise, then gently stir.
06 -
Drizzle the orange glaze evenly over the cooled cake. Allow a few minutes for the glaze to set before slicing and serving.
# Extra Information:
01 -
Ensure the cake is fully cooled before applying the glaze to prevent it from melting.
