2771.0. "CAKE: Bundt Cake Recipes" by WR2FOR::ABELLAR_MA () Sun Dec 02 1990 22:02

    I searched in the files of this notes, but to no avail. Was wondering
    
    if there are any recipes for Bundt cakes ? I have one a home for a
    
    Harvey Wallbanger cake that my mom and dad gave me and we make for the
    
    holidays.  Does anyone out there have any recipes to share?
    
                                Thanks,
                                      Mary

    I make mine with a boxed Lemon cake mix. Bake the cake in the bundt
    pan, let cool, then carefully cut the top off, cut a tunnel in the cake
    and fill with lemon pudding/pie filling, place top back on the cake and
    pour some more of the lemon pudding/pie filling over the top.  I do
    this with a lot of the cakes I make and everyone always loves them.

    In the Good Housekeeping Christmas issue there is a recipe for an "Oh
    So Good Orange Cake". I made it last weekend and it went into the
    freezer for Christmas. Lots of butter and eggs and yogurt; made with
    fresh orange peel and orange juice. Smelled absolutely wonderful!!!!
    Can't wait to eat it!!

From the December, 1990 Good Housekeeping magazine:

OH-SO-GOOD ORANGE CAKE
----------------------

2 large oranges
1 1/2 cups margarine or butter (3 sticks), softened
1 TBS orange extract
Sugar
5 large eggs
1 8-oz. container plain low-fat yogurt
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda

About 3 hours before serving or early in day:

Finely grate peel from 1 orange; set aside.  With vegetable peeler, shave peel
from second orange into long strips; wrap orange peel in plastic wrap and
reserve for garnish.  Squeeze 1/2 cup orange juice from oranges.  Refrigerate
any remaining orange to use another day.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Grease and flour 10-inch Bundt pan.  In large
bowl, with mixer at low speed, beat grated orange peel, margarine or butter,
orange extract, and 2 1/4 cups sugar just until blended.  Increase speed to
high; beat until light and fluffy.  Reduce speed to low; add eggs; beat until
just blended.  Increase speed to high; beat 3 minutes, occasionally scraping
bowl.  Reduce speed to low; beat in yogurt, then remaining ingredients just
until batter is smooth and well blended.

Spoon batter into pan.  Bake 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center of
cake comes out clean.

Shortly before cake is finished baking, in 1-quart saucepan over high heat,
heat reserved orange juice and 1/2 cup sugar to boiling.  Reduce heat to 
medium; cook 4-5 minutes until syrup is reduced to 1/2 cup; remove from heat.
Cut reserved orange peel into matchstick-thin strips.

Cool cake in pan on wire rack 5 minutes; remove from pan.  With pastry brush,
brush all but 1 TBS orange syrup over cake.  Stir orange peel into remaining
syrup until coated; spoon over cake.  Cool cake completely on rack.  Makes 16
servings.
