Stacy's Notes - Made this for Easter 2005. It was ok, but not outstanding. I baked it in my 9x13 pyrex dish (to carry it to a get-together), and I just used cooking spray to coat the pan, and no flour. I think I may have overbaked the cake portion.I used canola oil rather than vegetable oil, maybe that made the difference, but I doubt it. I checked it at 30 minutes, and it was still wiggly in the middle, so I put it back for 5 minutes. When I checked it at 35, it was totally done, so I think I overbaked it a bit. The topping was great - only used 1 cup of Cool Whip (not the entire 8 oz container) and left out the grated orange rind. Also used french vanilla pudding, as that was what I had on hand. It tastes good, but not as moist (the cake portion) as I had hoped.
