Esther's Orange Marmalade Cake image

From December 7, 2004 Woman's Day magazine. They have a great website also. This cake just didn't happen to be in; it's from a great author called Jan Karon. She has a cook book called Karon's Mitford Cookbook and Kitchen Reader. If all the recipes are as good as this sounds, I think I would like it.

I found this cake to be a bit dry. I think I would add more butter or oil to the batter next time.

I'm not a huge fan of orange marmalade, but I thought I'd give this cake a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The cake was very moist and flavorful. The orange marmalade filling was not overpowering at all.

This cake was a hit with my family! The orange marmalade gave it a lovely citrus flavor that wasn't too overpowering. The cake was also very moist and fluffy. I will definitely be making this again.
