Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour use the fluff, scoop and level method of measuring
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs at room temperature
- 1/4 cup fresh tangerine juice about 1
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- zest of 3 tangerines don't skimp
- 3/4 tsp orange extract
- 3/4 tsp vanilla extract
for the frosting
- 1/4 cup Creme Fraiche
- 1/8 cup fresh tangerine juice
- 1/2 tsp orange extract
- 2 cups confectioner's sugar sifted
- zest of 1 tangerine
Instructions
- Set oven to 350F
- Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and the sugar together until fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the zest and extracts.
- Mix the tangerine juice with the buttermilk.
- Add the dry ingredients alternately with the wet ingredients to the mixer, beginning and ending with the dry. Mix until just combined. If using a stand mixer, give it a final stir by hand.
- Turn the batter into a 8x8 square baking pan. I line mine with parchment paper with overlapping edges for easy removal. If you don't use parchment, lightly spray the pan.
- Bake for approximately 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without wet batter clinging to it. Let cool before frosting.
- To make the frosting, beat the creme fraiche and tangerine juice together, along with the extract. Add enough confectioner's sugar to make a nice spreadable frosting. Add more juice if it is too thick.
- Frost the cooled cake and top liberally with the tangerine zest.
