Cake Batter
Mix together sugar and oil. I do this in the bowl of a stand mixer.
Check eggs first(for blood spots and shells), and add to the bowl one at a time, beating in after each addition.
Evenly sprinkle in flour and baking powder(don't dump it all in one spot).
For the juice, add the Tbs. of lemon juice to your 3/4 measuring cup, and then fill to the top with orange juice.
Add in rest of ingredients- pudding mix, orange+lemon juice, vodka, and amaretto liquor.
Mix until smooth on medium speed.
