    Orange-Almond Cake

    Recipe By : WW Magazine, March/April, 2001 p 97
    Serving Size : 10 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : 4 Points Desserts
    Jewish Dishes Passover
    Weight Watchers

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1/3 C Matzo Meal
    1 C Almonds -- Whole
    1 Whole Orange Rind -- 1 Orge Worth, Grated
    2/3 C Sugar
    2 Whole Egg Yolk -- Room Temperature
    1/2 C Orange Juice
    1/2 Tsp Vanilla
    3 Whole Egg White -- Room Temperature

    1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 8 inch springform pan with wax
    or parchment paper, spray with non-stick spray and dust lightly with matzo
    meal.

    w. Grind the almonds in a food processor or blender until very finely
    crumbed, 2-3 minutes. Add the matzo meal and orange rind, pulse once or
    twice to blend thoroughly.

    3. With an electric mixer of medium speed, beat the sugar, egg yolks, and
    orange juice in a medium bowl until thick and yellow in color, about 2
    minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Sprinkle the almond mixture over and lightly
    fold until blended.

    4. With an electric mixer on medium speed in another medium bowl, beat the
    egg whites until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Fold into the almond
    mixture. S pread evenly in the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick
    inserted in the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes. Let cool completely
    on a rack, about 1 hour, then remove from the pan and carefully peel off
    the wax paper (the cake is *very* fragile). Sift the confectioner's sugar
    evenly over the cake just before serving.

    Serving Ideas : fresh orange slices tossed with a little honey and grated

    NOTES : Parve Cake will stay moist and delicious for 3 days. Wrap it in
    plastic wrap and refrigerate. Can be frozen by wraping in plastic
    wrap and then foil for up to a month. You'll need to freeze it in
    a cake pan just large enough to hold it. You'll need the cake pan
    because the cake is so fragile. Then remove it from the cake pan
    to store in freezer. To thaw, place in refrigerator for 6 hours or
    overnight.
    SERVING TIP: fresh orange slices tossed with a little honey and
    grated orange make a good garnish.
    This one is a winner. A couple of notes:

    - Ignore the recipe and make it in a small bundt pan (the
    mini-size). It will look much better.
    - A 9 inch round pan won't work.
    - It had 2 tsp of confectioner's sugar in it. I didn't use it and
    didn't miss anything. And Passover confectioner's sugar is hard
    to find and a pain to make.
    - Use a large, jucy orange for that orange peel. I used a smaller
    one the first time and the cake didn't have enough taste.
  • Mandarin Orange Cake
    Mandarin Orange Cake

    1 Yellow Cake Mix
    1 Can of Mandarin Oranges (not drained)
    1/2 Cup Applesauce
    4 Egg Whites

    Mix together and bake in a 9 x 13 pan sprayed with PAM for 30 minutes

    1 - 8 oz Carton of FF Cool Whip
    1 - Can Crushed Pineapple (? I think it was about 20 oz, definitely larger than the normal size)
    1 - Pig. FF Instant Vanilla Pudding

    Mix together and pour on cooled cake.

    Extremely easy! I used the "normal" size can or oranges - I think it was 12 or 14 oz.
