Orange Fluff Cake Recipe
Yield: 6 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup: Sifted cake flour,
1 tsp: Grated orange zest,
1 cup: Granulated sugar,
1/3 cup: Strained fresh orange juice,
2 tsp: Baking powder,
6 large: Eggs, separated
1/2 tsp: Salt,
1 tsp: Vanilla extract,
5 tbsp: Unsalted butter, melted
1/2 tsp: Cream of tartar,
Glaze:,
1 cup: Sifted confectioners sugar,
2 tbsp: Fresh orange juice,
1 tsp: Grated orange zest,
Directions:
1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350
degrees F. Have ready an ungreased 10-inch tube pan with a removable
bottom. (Do not use a tube pan with a nonstick surface.)
2. Sift the flour, half cup sugar, the baking powder, and salt into a
medium-sized bowl. Form a well in the center and add the melted
butter, orange zest, orange juice, and the yolks, and vanilla. With
an electric mixer, beat until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
3. In a large bowl combine the egg whites and cream of tartar; beat
with an electric mixer until soft peaks begin to form. Gradually beat
in the remaining half cup sugar and continue to beat until stiff
glossy peaks form. Stir a large spoonful of the whites into the
batter to lighten. With a spatula, quickly fold in the remaining egg
whites, half at a time, to make a fluffy batter that is even in
color. Turn into the ungreased tube pan and bake one hour to one hour
and 15 minutes, until the top springs back when lightly touched and a
toothpick inserted emerges without crumbs clinging to it. Immediately
invert and let the cake hang upside down until completely cool. (If
the pan does not have tabs on its rim, place tube over the neck of a
bottle). Turn right side up and run a sharp knife around the edge to
separate the cake from the pan. Remove sides. Run a knife around the
center tube and under the cake; remove the pan bottom. Turn the cake
right side up on a serving plate.
4. Prepare glaze: In a small bowl combine the confectioners sugar,
orange zest, and orange juice to make a glaze. Spread over the top of
the cake, letting some drip down the sides. Let stand at room
temperature until glaze has set, about one hour.
