Orange Glaze Cake

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 10-in. fluted tube pan.
• In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in orange zest and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition (batter may appear curdled).
• Transfer to prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 45-50 minutes.
• Poke holes in warm cake using a fork or wooden skewer. Mix confectioners' sugar, melted butter and orange juice; spoon slowly over cake. Cool 15 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack; cool completely. Serve with candied orange peel and additional confectioners' sugar.
