Chocolate Orange Cake
 
 
Ingredients:
1 1/2 c unbleached flour
1 1/2 c whole wheat flour (I used white whole wheat)
1 1/2 c sugar
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 c cocoa
1 tsp cinnamon
3/4 c yogurt
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 c water
1/2 c fresh orange juice
2 tbsp grated orange peel
Chocolate Icing:
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 tbsp cocoa
2 tsp orange juice
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (or 1/8 tsp if double strength)
Plus extra orange juice as needed
Orange Icing:
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp orange juice
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (or 1/8 tsp if double strength)
Plus extra orange juice as needed
 
 
Instructions:
1. Combine the flours, sugar, baking soda, salt, cocoa, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Add the yogurt, vanilla, balsamic vinegar, water, and orange juice. Beat by hand or with a mixer on low speed just until well-combined, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the grated orange peel, and pour into the prepared pan.
2. Bake for about 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then invert it onto a serving platter and cool completely.
3. When the cake is cool, make the icings. For each icing, mix the ingredients in separate small bowls. One half tsp at a time, stir in enough extra orange juice to make a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the chocolate icing over the cake, wait a few minutes for it to set, and then drizzle the orange icing.
