This cake is SO yummy! fluffy, zesty, sweet, and fun to make. If you dont have tangerines on hand Im sure a few Oranges would work fine. I give this a 4.5 out of 5.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups cake flour, stir before measuring
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 ounces butter (1/2 cup)
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons finely grated tangerine zest
- 1 cup tangerine juice
- 4 large egg whites
Preparation:
Grease
and flour a 10 or 12-cup tube or Bundt cake pan, or spray with a
baking spray. Heat oven to 350°.
Sift
the flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl; set aside. In a large
mixing bowl, beat butter until light. Gradually beat in sugar; beat
until light and fluffy. Add the tangerine zest and stir to blend. Add
the sifted dry ingredients to the batter about 1/3 at a time,
alternating with half of the tangerine juice, ending with dry
ingredients. Beat until smooth and well blended. In another bowl beat
the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the egg
whites into the batter until well blended.
Spoon
batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until a
cake tester or toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the
center of the cake. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes; turn out onto a
serving plate to cool completely. Glaze with the tangerine glaze
(instructions below) or dust with powdered sugar.
Tangerine
Glaze: Combine 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of
melted butter, 2 teaspoons finely grated tangerine zest, and enough
tangerine juice to make a glaze which can be drizzled over the cake
with a spoon.
