Add the orange and vanilla extracts to the melted butter ahd chocolate and stir into the egg mixture. Add the dry ingredients, mixing well. Spread the batter into prepared pan and bake 25 to 30 minutes until mixture is set, but not dry. Cool about 10 minutes.
- Sift the sugar, flour and baking powder for the orange layer together in a large bowl. Whisk in the orange zest, orange and lemon juices, the orange flower water if using, and the orange extract. Whisk in the eggs, stirring until smooth. Pour over the pre-baked bottom and bake another 40 to 50 minutes, until the filling puffs up. The top should be light golden brown and the filling set.
