    I have baked this cake a year before and this is the second time I am baking this. This was my first ever cake bake,thanks to Prathiba(prathy) who motivated me in baking…My first bake itself was a success and I was very happy about that and gave me a lot of confidence in baking… Very simple and easy bake,do try comes out soft and flavourful !

   This time I replaced the butter with oil and baked in very small quantity. My kiddo was very excited while baking the cake,as he loves orange flavour ‘anything’ . And when he tasted he also said,the cake was delicious! What else I need more than that… .This time to look pretty in the pictures,I tried decorating with the ready-made icing I bought,came out pretty,but the taste was not so pleasing…After clicking I just wiped out that icing .Next time I will try on my own…

You can find the recipe I referred, here..

Ingredients

(My 1 cup holds 240 ml of liquid)

Method:

1. Pre heat the oven to 180⁰ C. Sieve flour,baking powder,baking soda two times to ensure even mixing.
2. Mix well the condensed milk,orange juice,oil(or softened butter),sugar,vanilla essence,lemon juice with a whisk. Look who is helping me …
3. Take the sieved flour in a bowl and make a dent,pour the mixed liquid in the dent and mix well without any lumps,using the whisk.
4. Grate some orange peel in the batter and give it a mix.(orange zest)
5. Grease a baking pan,with butter and dust with some flour. Pour the prepared batter in the pan. Tap the pan gently once or twice to remove any big air bubbles.
6. Bake it to 30 minutes or until the toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. Let it cool down for 5 minutes and then invert the cake over an wire rack and let it cool.

The orange juice and the zest gives a nice orange flavour to the cake. We loved this soft textured cake very much!
