Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process)
1 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
Finely grated zest of 1 large, deep-colored orange
For the glaze:
1/3 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Adjust rack one-third up from the bottom of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. You will need a loaf pan measuring about 8½ x 4½ x 2¾ inches, or one with about a 6‑cup capacity. Butter the pan and dust it all over lightly with fine, dry bread crumbs, shake out excess crumbs, and set the pan aside.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa, and sugar and set aside.
  • Beat the cream and vanilla in the small bowl of an electric mixer until the cream holds a definite shape. On low speed, add the eggs, one at a time, scraping the bowl with a rubber spatula and beating only until the egg is incorporated after each addition. (The eggs will thin the cream slightly.)
  • Transfer to the large bowl of the mixer and gradually, on low speed, add the sifted dry ingredients, scraping the bowl and beating only until smooth. Remove from the mixer and stir in the grated zest. That's all there is to it.
  • Turn the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 1 hour and 5 minutes, until the top springs back when lightly pressed with a fingertip.
  • For the glaze:
  • As soon as the cake goes into the oven, mix the orange juice with the sugar and let it stand while the cake is baking.
  • After you remove the cake from the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes. Then, a little at a time, brush the orange juice/sugar mixture all over the cake; encourage most of it to run down the sides between the cake and the pan, but thoroughly wet the top also. The cake will absorb it all.
  • Let the cake stand in the pan until it is completely cool. Then cover the pan loosely with a piece of wax paper. Invert the cake into the palm of your hand-easy does it-remove the pan, cover the cake with a rack, and invert again, leaving the cake right side up.

ORANGE CHOCOLATE LOAF CAKE FROM FLORIDA RECIPE - (4/5)



Orange Chocolate Loaf Cake from Florida Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by Dr_Mom

Number Of Ingredients 13

CAKE:
1 1/4 cup sifted, all purpose flour
2 teaspoons double acting baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
Zest of 1 orange
GLAZE:
1/3 cup orange juice (without pulp)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Adjust the rack 1/3 up from the bottom of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Butter a 8.5 x 4.5 x 2.75-inch loaf pan (about 6 cup capacity) and then dust it with fine, dry bread crumbs. Shake out the excess and set aside. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa and sugar and set aside. Beat the cream and vanilla in an electric mixer until it holds soft peaks, On low speed add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the bowl and only beating until the egg is incorporated. Gradually add the dry ingredients scraping down the bowl and beating only until just smooth. Remove from the mixer and stir in the grated rind. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 65 minutes until the top springs back when lightly touched with a fingertip (not a cake tester this cake will be moist) As soon as the cake goes into the oven mix the OJ with the 3 tablespoons of sugar and let it stand while baking. After you remove the cake from the oven let it cool for 5 minutes. Then, a little at a time, brush the glaze all over the cake encouraging most to run down the sides between the cake and pan but make sure the top is soaked also. This cake is going to soak all this up if you go slowly enough. Let the cake stand in the pan until it is completely cool. Cover it with a piece of wax or parchment paper. Invert the cake into your hand (go slow here, if it's stuck loosen the side with a knife) take off the pan and turn right side up again. Serve warm!
