Time 2h20m

Yield 2 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup grated orange zest (6 oranges)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice, divided
3/4 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Cream the butter and 2 cups of the granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for about 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy. With the mixer on medium speed, beat in the eggs, one at a time, and the orange zest.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the orange juice, the buttermilk, and vanilla. Add the flour and buttermilk mixtures alternately to the batter, beginning and ending with the flour. Divide the batter evenly between the pans, smooth the tops, and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until a cake tester comes out clean.
  • While the cakes bake, cook the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar with the remaining 1/2 cup orange juice in a small saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. When the cakes are done, let them cool for 10 minutes. Take them out of the pans and place them on a baking rack set over a tray. Spoon the orange syrup over the cakes and allow the cakes to cool completely.
  • To glaze, combine the confectioners' sugar and orange juice in a bowl, mixing with a wire whisk until smooth. Add a few more drops of juice, if necessary, to make it pour easily. Pour over the top of one cake and allow the glaze to dry. Wrap well, and store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will give your cake a more intense orange flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled or frozen orange juice, but the flavor won't be as good.
  • Zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest of the orange is where most of the flavor is, so be sure to zest the oranges before you juice them. You can use a microplane grater or a vegetable peeler to zest the oranges.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a bundt pan. A bundt pan will give the cake a beautiful shape and allow it to cook evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. If you glaze the cake while it's still warm, the glaze will run off. Let the cake cool completely before you glaze it.

Conclusion:

Orange Tang Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a sweet and tangy orange glaze. The cake is also very versatile and can be decorated in a variety of ways. Whether you're serving it for breakfast, dessert, or a special occasion, Orange Tang Cake is sure to be a hit.
