This delicious Butter Cake with Orange Icing combines the rich, buttery flavor of classic pound cake with the refreshing zest of orange. Perfect for any occasion, this cake is both easy to make and delightful to eat.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure the butter, eggs, and sour cream are at room temperature before you begin. This helps to create a smoother batter and ensures even baking.
- Fresh Orange Zest: Use fresh orange zest for the icing to get the most vibrant and aromatic flavor.
- Avoid Over-Mixing: When combining the dry and wet ingredients, mix only until combined to prevent the cake from becoming dense.
- Check for Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few dry crumbs, the cake is done.
- Cool Completely: Allow the cake to cool completely before applying the orange icing to prevent it from melting and soaking into the cake.
To conclude, this Butter Cake with Orange Icing is a treat for the senses. The combination of the buttery cake with the fresh and zesty orange icing creates a harmonious balance of flavors. Enjoy a slice with a cup of tea or coffee, or serve it as a delightful dessert at your next gathering.
