All purpose flour/ Maida – 2 cups

Baking powder – 2 tsp

Orange red colour – a pinch

Method

Mix maida with baking powder and salt.  Keep aside.  Cream butter and sugar in a bowl.  Add eggs one at a time and blend well.  Add orange juice, orange rind and the essence.  Dissolve orange red colour in milk and add it to the mixture, alternating with the flour and fold in.  Pour into a prepared cake mould.  Bake in a preheated oven on 350 degree F or 175 degree C for 30 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.  Leave it in the oven for 10 minutes.  Take out and allow it to cool completely before serving.  Enjoy with your loved ones!
