Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together the softened butter and 1 tablespoon of the cocoa to make a thick paste. Use this paste to paint the inside of the Bundt pan. Set aside.
- In an electric mixer, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and remaining 1/2 cup cocoa and mix until blended. Add the orange juice, mayonnaise, vinegar and vanilla and mix until just combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold in the orange zest. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean, 45 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, and then turn out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- For the chocolate glaze: Mix the confectioners' sugar and cocoa together. Whisk in the orange juice, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a good consistency to drizzle. Drizzle the glaze over the cake.

Steps:
- Cake:.
- In a large mixing bowl, dump cake mix, jello, orange juice, oil, unbeaten eggs, and orange zest.
- Beat on low speed 1 minute, then beat on medium for 2 minutes.
- Pour 2/3's of the batter into a well greased and floured bundt pan.
- Spoon the chocolate mixture scattered over the top of the orange batter.
- Take a spatula to cut through and make the swirls.
- Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 1 hour.
- Chocolate Batter:.
- In a small bowl, first add the 2 tablespoons warm water to the 1 Tbsp.sugar; then add that along with the 1/4 teaspoons baking soda to the 2oz. melted chocolate Stir to mix well.
- Add chocolate mixture to the remaining 1/3 orange cake batter and mix together with spoon until all is well blended.
- Follow directions above to add to the bundt pan and orange batter.
- Orange Glaze:.
- Whisk the powdered sugar, orange juice, and fresh zest together in a small bowl. Set aside and wait for cake to bake.
- * When cake is done, be sure to cool on a wire rack about 8-10 minutes before turning cake out of the pan into your cake plate.
- Right away, prick the cake on the top and all around the side with a toothpick or a fork.
- Slowly, pour the yummy orange glaze over the cake.
- Do not cut the cake until it is completely cooled. It is really best if you can wait until the next day to cut it. But who can do that? It's the same thing as when you make a cheesecake -- that first taste is so much better when you wait a day!

ORANGE GLAZE CAKE
Mom loved to bake-from the time I can remember, every Saturday she was in the kitchen creating another wonderful cake or pie. This tender orange cake bakes up deep golden brown and is a favorite of mine, my friends and my family. To make it even more special, serve slices with ice cream or a drizzle of Curacao. -Patricia Wright, Stratford, New Jersey
