List of Ingredients
1 orange, grated rind and juice
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup nuts, finely chopped (we used sliced almonds)
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup sour milk or buttermilkRecipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix orange juice and 1/2 cup sugar and let stand while preparing cake.
Cream butter. Add remaining 1 cup sugar and cream until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and nuts.
Sift together flour, baking soda and baking powder. Fold into first mixture alternately with sour milk. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter.
Pour into greased and floured 8-inch tube pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes. (We used a 10-inch tube pan, so our baking time was reduced to 40 minutes.)
Remove from oven. Pour mixture of orange juice and sugar mixture over cake.
