Orange Slice Cake
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup orange juice
2 teaspoons orange zest
2 cups chopped orange slice candy or similar candy
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans optional
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350F 175C. Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan or two 8-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the orange juice. Stir in the orange zest.
Gently fold in the chopped orange slice candy and nuts if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared pans and smooth the top.
Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy this bright and citrusy cake perfect for celebrations or any time you crave a refreshing treat!
