Steps:
- 1. Sift first 5 dry ingredients together. I am sorry I have no pictures, but this only seems difficult the first time, but you really have to try hard to not have this taste wonderful. The ingredients are simple combinations and baking 2 at a time works well for future time-saver.
- 2. Add the next 4 items to dry ingredients. Mix together next 3 (wet) ingredients. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Pour into a greased tube or bundt pan and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 3. While cake is baking, mix together 1 cup orange juice and 1 cup sugar until sugar is dissolved.
- 4. Pour OJ/sugar mixture over warm cake, wrap tightly and refrigerate (in baking pan) for 24 hours or at least over night. Easy removal can be done by lowering pan into warm watger for a few seconds and inverting onto serving platter.
- 5. This is the point where you can wrap up the cake and freeze for later retrieval. To speed up the absorption of OJ into the cake, an ice-pick can be used to poke holes into the cake and also run gently down pan creases to assure OJ totally encompasses the cake with moisture.
