Servings: 12 servings
Ingredients
CAKE:
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1½ cups granulated white sugar
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- One 16-ounce can whole berry cranberry sauce
- ⅓ cup orange juice
- 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon orange extract
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
ICING:
- 1 cup sifted powdered sugar
- 1 to 2 tablespoons orange juice
Instructions
MAKE THE CAKE:
- Preheat the oven to 350° F. Spray a 10-inch tube pan generously with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine all of the cake ingredients, stirring in the nuts last. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake 60 to 70 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack and cool completely.
ADD THE ICING:
- In a medium bowl, combine the icing ingredients- adding enough juice to create a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the icing over the cake.
Notes
- Add orange extract to icing for more orange flavor.
- If you are unable to locate orange extract, you may leave it out... but the orange flavor won't be quite as pronounced.
