Orange cake, oh my!

Want to change from chocolate cakes? Looking for a recipe that has a strong orange taste? Then this is your cake! Pity that you cannot smell from your computer :)
It is true that it does not have the glory of a chocolate cake but if you accept this, and dare to try, you will be addicted!

Ingredients
1 cup of margarine
2 cups of sugar
4 big eggs
3 1/2 cups of self-raising flour
2/3 cup of orange juice
the orange zest

Procedure
Soften the margarine in the microwave oven, add the sugar, the eggs and the zest. Whisk using a mixer for a few minutes.



Add the flour and the orange juice and you mix again until a smooth soft result.










Pour in a cake mold that you have butter before.      


Bake in 180 degrees of Celsius in fan for about 45min or until you dip a knife and comes out clean. Time depends from the molds that you will use, here I baked the rectangular mold for about 30min and the round one for about 40min.
