  • 1 can of sliced peaches, drained
  • 1 package of instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups of cold milk
  • 1 container of whipped topping
  • Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, peach schnapps, orange juice, vegetable oil, and eggs. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and the batter is smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and arrange the sliced peaches on top, gently pressing them into the batter.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. While the cake is baking, prepare the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions using the cold milk. Set aside.
  6. Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely.
  7. Using a fork or skewer, poke several holes all over the surface of the cooled cake.
  8. Pour the prepared vanilla pudding over the cake, making sure it fills the holes and covers the entire surface.
  9. Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour to allow the pudding to set.
  10. Before serving, spread the whipped topping evenly over the chilled cake.
  11. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired, for an extra pop of color and flavor.
  12. Slice and serve the Fuzzy Navel Cake chilled for a refreshing and delightful dessert.
