Chocolate Orange Cake

This super moist chocolate orange cake is made with fresh orange juice, orange zest, dutch cocoa powder, and topped with chocolate orange buttercream.

This recipe for the chocolate orange cake is super easy to make, it comes together in one bowl, which is ultimate for cleaning!

What you will need:

Flour Dutch cocoa powder Baking powder Baking soda Vanilla extract Sugar Orange juice Orange zest Eggs Hot coffee (or water) Salt

Add the dry ingredients into a big mixing bowl, mix with a whisk and add the wet ingredients. Pour the batter into two 8 inch baking pans and bake in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes.

What you will need for the frosting:

Butter Powder sugar Vanilla extract Salt Orange zest

Let the cake cool completely before frosting.  Pipe ⅓ of the frosting on top of the cake layer and spread an even layer.

Top with the second cake layer and frost the cake.

For decoration, smooth the sides of the cake (it shouldn’t look perfect) and make wave motions on the top of the cake for a rustic look.

We like topping this chocolate orange cake with slices of fresh orange.
