MARGIE’S ORANGE CAKE

By Manuela | October 29, 2020 | InAll Recipes, Blog, Desserts

This recipe is from my friend Margie Agostini. It is still one of my very favourite cakes. So moist and full of flavour. It is also super easy to make.
I have halved her original recipe and added grated orange rind to the dough.

• preheat oven 180 ˚

• 250 gr unsalted butter at room temperature
• 250 gr raw caster sugar
• 4 organic eggs
• 250 gr self raising flour
• grated skin of 1 organic orange
• 100 ml freshly squeezed orange juice
• pinch of salt

• in your electric mixer, beat the sugar and butter until light and fluffy
• add one egg at the time, beating well after each egg
• now add all the flour , orange rind and salt
• slowly pour in the orange juice and mix well
• butter a 25 cm cake tin
• pour in the cake mixture
• bake for about 45 minutes

• icing:

• 200 gr icing sugar
• 30-40 ml of fresh orange juice
• in a fry pan toast 50 gr coconut until golden ( optional)

• once the cake is cold, ice it and while the icing is still whet
• sprinkle the coconut ( if chosen) over the cake
