Sunshine Chiffon Cake With Creamy Orange Frosting image

I love to make this light orange cake in the spring and summertime. I discovered this great recipe in a cookbook called "My Mother's Southern Desserts". There are tons more wonderful recipes in it! Frost with Recipe #26165.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 ten inch tube cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 large eggs, separated
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 cup cake flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
creamy orange frosting (Creamy Orange Frosting)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer until frothy, then gradually add 2/3 cup of the granulated sugar, beating until thick.
  • In a small bowl, combine the orange rind and juice and add to the yolk mixture alternately with the flour, beating until well blended.
  • Wash and dry the beaters.
  • In another large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt.
  • Beat until soft peaks form, then gradually add the remaining 2/3 cups granulated sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, scrape the batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan and bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean (about 1 hour and 10 minutes).
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert on wire rack to cool completely.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with Creamy Orange Frosting and let the cake stand for at least 1 hour before serving.

I'm allergic to oranges, so I substituted lemon juice and zest in the frosting. It turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as light and fluffy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
