Fresh orange cake

The Cake Doctor by Anne Byrn is where this fresh orange cake recipe came from.  She doctors cake mixes to make them special. It is very basic and easy. You have to be careful, the stores are selling less than large cake mixes and it turns out you have to use part of another cake mix in order to make the cake the right size.  They are shifty!
Fresh orange cake:
1 package, 18.25 yellow cake mix.  However, this does not measure right and you must use some of another box of cake mix to level out the ingredients.  Shifty!
1 cup of fresh orange juice...ABOUT 5 MEDIUM ORANGES
1/2 CUP OIL
1/4 CUP SUGAR
1 TSP. PURE VANILLA EXTRACT
4 LARGE EGGS
Glaze:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon fresh grated orange zest
Mix and place on the cake in drizzles
