2- Stir cocoa into cake mix. Beat cake mix and cold water in extra-large glass or metal bowl with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds beat on medium speed 1 minute. Pour into ungreased angel food cake (tube) pan, 10 x 4 inches. (Do not use bundt cake pan or 9 x 3 1/2-inch angel food pan or batter will overflow.)
3- Bake 37 to 47 minutes or until top is dark golden brown and cracks feel very dry and not sticky. Do not underbake. Immediately turn pan upside down onto glass bottle until cake is completely cool, about 2 hours.
4- While cake is cooling, make Raspberry-Orange Sauce.
5- Run knife around edges of cake remove from pan. Split cake horizontally to make 3 layers. Spread 1 cup whipped topping and slightly less than 1/2 cup sauce over 1 cake layer (sauce may not completely cover layer). Repeat with second layer. Top with remaining layer. Spread remaining sauce over top of cake. Drop remaining whipped topping in dollops on top of sauce. Store covered in refrigerator.
Raspberry-Orange Sauce:
Drain raspberries, reserving liquid. Add enough water to raspberry liquid to measure 2/3 cup. Mix sugar and cornstarch in 1-quart saucepan stir in liquid mixture. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in orange juice and raspberries. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
High Altitude (3500 to 6500 feet): Heat oven to 325°. Add 1/3 cup cornstarch to the cocoa and dry cake mix. Increase water to 1 1/3 cups. Beat on low speed 30 seconds, then beat on medium speed 3 minutes. Bake 53 to 58 minutes.

Betty's Tip: For the sauce, be sure to mix the sugar and cornstarch together before the liquid is added to prevent the cornstarch from getting lumpy. If you have any leftover sauce, it also makes a great topping for chocolate cake or ice cream!
