Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
- Butter and flour an 8″ springform pan
- Beat the sugar and eggs until thick and creamy.
- Sift the flour with the baking powder or Paneangeli, then add to the mixture in the bowl a little at a time along with the softened butter.
- Continue to mix until completely blended, then stir in the yogurt.
- Blend the mandarin oranges in a food processor until finely chopped into a purée, then add to the batter. Mix well.
- Pour into prepared tin and bake for 50-60 minutes until a cake tester or skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes, then run a thin knife around the perimeter and remove the side of the springform pan. Remove the bottom of the pan and place on a cooling rack.
Glaze
- Put the mandarin orange juice and sugar in a small pot and simmer for about 3 minutes until sugar is melted.
- Brush the glaze over the cake.
- Serve when cool on its own, or with some ice cream, custard or whipped cream.

Notes
- Using a scale will give the best results.
- It's difficult to say how many mandarin oranges are needed because they are never uniform in size and weight.
