Glazed Orange Pound Cake
Take advantage of winter citrus by baking this glazed orange pound cake! The dense, buttery cake is made with freshly squeezed orange juice for a refreshingly bright flavor in both the batter and the glaze. By adding a touch of oil, it stays moist for several days, so you can enjoy it all week long with your morning coffee or afternoon tea!
