A friend asked for moist orange cake, I don't have the recipe of hand...goggle a round and I found this. An orange cake recipe that is easy to make and results in a
super moist and rich cake.
A little bit sweet but if you plan for frosting I would suggest reducing the sugar to 3/4 cup/ You can use your favourite frosting and orange glaze would definitely be awesome.
Orange Cupcakes
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup (250 ml) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon (2 ml) pure vanilla extract

- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) orange zest
- Preheat oven to 375° (190° C)
- Line 12 muffin tin cups with paper or silicone liners. Place eggs in a small bowl; cover with hot tap water.
- Beat butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time; then vanilla. Thoroughly mix sifted flour with baking powder and salt. Then sift or rub through a sieve again. Combine milk with orange juice.
- Alternately, in 2 batches, stir first flour mixture and then milk mixture into butter mixture. Stir in zest. Divide batter among cups.
