Orange Cake step by step

1. Preheat oven to 350degrees Fahrenheit. Mix sugar and eggs in a bowl with a hand mixture. Drizzle the olive oil and vanilla extract and mix till they form a smooth batter..
2. Add orange juice and zest and mix well. In a separate bowl sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. I prefer using cake flour to all purpose flour, but all purpose flour works just as well..
3. Pour batter into a prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes. If the cake isn't sweet enough or lacks orange flour, you could inject fresh orange juice into the cake while its hot. Once the cake has cooled, dust it with confectioners sugar. Enjoy!.
