Instructions
Mix cake mix according to the instructions on box; put to the side (do not bake).
Slice the top third of each orange; leave the top pieces to the side (you can use them as garnish later). Scoop the fruit out of the bottom 2/3 of the fruit, so that you have an empty shell.
Fill each orange shell 3/4 full with cake batter.
Nestle each orange within an 8-inch square of foil; place directly on grill.
Grill for 15 to 20 minutes; shift frequently. To check if the cake is done, insert a skewer or toothpick; if it comes out clean, the cake's ready.
At this point you have two options: you can let them cool, and frost liberally with chocolate fudge frosting and slices from the unused top portion of the orange as garnish; or, you can eat the hot, unfrosted cake directly from the orange. Your choice.
For the frosting: In a saucepan, combine butter, cocoa, and milk; bring to a light boil.
Add vanilla. Also add confectioners' sugar, cup by cup, stirring constantly, until the frosting has reached the desired consistency.
