Sunshine orange cream cake

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
⅓ cup Margarine
3 tablespoons Packed light brown sugar
⅔ cup Sugar
⅓ teaspoon Vanilla extract
2 Eggs
1⅓ cup All-purpose flour
½ teaspoon Baking soda
2 teaspoons Double-acting baking powder
½ teaspoon Salt
1 pint Sour cream
⅔ cup Milk
1 Orange -- *see note

Directions

* Peel orange, cut into quarters and thinly slice across the sections, or cut into a pretty pattern of your choice.

1. Cream margarine and sugars until light and fluffy. Blend in vanilla. Beat in eggs one at a time. 2. Stir flour, salt, soda, and baking powder together thoroughly; blend into creamed mixture alternately with ½ cup sour cream and milk. Begin and end with flour. 3. Pour into greased and waxed paper-lined (grease the waxed paper lightly also) 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven, 25-35 minutes or until done. 4. COOL COMPLETELY before removing from pan. 5. Cut cake in half to form 2 layers 6-½ by 9 inches.

Spread ¾ cup sour cream over layer, arrange orange slices on sour cream. Top with second layer. Garnish each serving with additional sour cream and orange slices.

* The sour cream is an acquired taste. You may prefer to sweeten it with sugar or honey, or with a mix of half sour cream and half sweetened whipped cream.
