- In another mixing bowl, whisk together brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, yogurt, oil, orange zest, and orange-juice concentrate.
- Using a rubber spatula, fold the wet ingredients into the dry, just enough to combine. The batter will be very thick.

Always a big hit! Recipe comes from the Cooking Light 2005 Holiday magazine (the ultimate resource for holiday cooking!!) and I can't believe no one has posted them yet!
