FRESH ORANGE CAKE WITH ORANGE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 3 9-inch cake pans with nonstick baking spray* and line with parchment. Spray parchment with baking spray. *NOTE: I used 2-9-inch cake pans, figuring I'd slice those in half. That was tricky, as the cake was so moist, that it took a miracle that transferring the layers didn't break! In a large bowl sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add oil, orange juice, eggs and sour cream. Optional: I add 1/4 teaspoon of pure orange oil, for more flavor. Beat at medium speed with a mixer until smooth. Pour into prepared pans and bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely on wire racks. Frosting: In a large bowl, beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed with a mixer until creamy. Add orange zest and orange juice, beating until combined. Gradually add confectioners sugar beating until smooth. (NOTE: You can add more confectioner's sugar, if you prefer a much thicker frosting.) Assembly: Spread frosting evenly between layers and on top and sides of cake.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly mist a 12 cup bundt pan with vegetable oil spray, then dust with flour. Shake out excess flour.
- Place cake mix, orange juice, oil, sugar, vanilla and eggs in large mixing bowl. Blend with mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop machine and scrape down sides of bowl. Increase mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more, scraping sides again if needed. The batter should look thick and well blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place in the oven.
- Bake the cake until it's golden brown and just starts to pull away from the sides of the pan, 45-47 minutes. Remove pan from oven and place on wire rack to cool for 20 minutes. Run a long, sharp knife around the edge of the cake and invert it onto a rack to cool completely, 30 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, prepare the glaze. Combine the confectioners sugar, fresh orange juice, and orange zest in a small bowl and stir until smooth. Place the cake on a platter and pour the glaze over the top, letting it drizzle down the sides and into the center. Let the glze set for a few minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 3 9 inch round cake pans. Set aside. Cream butter and sugar; add eggs and cream together. Add dry ingredients that have been sifted together. Add milk and orange juice and zest. Bake for 25 or 30 minutes. Cool on baking racks after removing from pans.
- 2. Frosting: Cook first five ingredients until thick. Beat cream until thick and swirly. Add to cooled, cooked mixture and spread on cake and in between layers. Sprinkle orange zest on top.
Tips:
- Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges provide a brighter, more flavorful taste than store-bought orange juice or concentrate.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest contains flavorful oils that will enhance the cake's flavor.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will create a smooth, even batter.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
- Gradually add the flour and baking powder to the batter. Overmixing can toughen the cake.
- Pour the batter into a greased and floured bundt pan. This will help the cake rise evenly.
- Bake the cake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle the cake with orange glaze before serving. This will add a sweet, citrusy flavor to the cake.
Conclusion:
Fresh orange cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its bright citrus flavor and moist, fluffy texture, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try!
