Everyone who bakes needs a good orange pound cake recipe in their file!

From Quick Guide: Cake Recipes
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Pound Cake, warm, fresh out of the oven
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. orange peel
  • 1 to 2 Tbs. orange juice
  1. Step 1

    Poke several holes in warm pound cake.

  2. Step 2

    Mix powdered sugar, orange peel and orange juice until well mixed. Mixture should be slightly thin. Add more orange juice as necessary to make about the consistency of pancake batter.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the powdered sugar/orange mix onto the cake, into the holes, allowing it to soak into the cake.

  4. Step 4

    Let the cake cool until dessert time! The sugar makes a nice light crunch on top, and the juice soaks throughout the cake--it's absolutely delicious!!

Tips & Warnings
  • You may substitute orange juice or add additional ingredients to make it special ... try rum, spiced rum, or a nice pineapple-coconut rum for a tropical delight!
  • Beware, you may obtain a craving for this delight once you try it!
