Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the orange juice and orange zest.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  10. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  11. Once the cakes are cool, spread a layer of whipped cream between the two layers and on top of the cake.
  12. Garnish with additional orange zest if desired and serve chilled.
