Instructions
- set oven to 350F
- Spray and flour a bundt pan (or a tube pan with a removable bottom)
- Heat the poppy seeds and the milk in a saucepan until warmed and set aside.
- Make the tangerine sugar in a food processor: process the sugar and the zest of one tangerine together until the sugar is fragrant and pale orange. If you don't have a processor just finely grate the zest and mix with the sugar.
- Cream the butter with the tangerine sugar and extracts until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition. Scrape down that bowl!
- Whisk together the flour and baking powder.
- Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with the poppy seed milk, beginning and ending with the dry. Beat just until blended with each addition, don't over beat.
- Blend in the tangerine juice.
- Turn the batter into your prepared pan and smooth out the surface. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until risen and just turnning golden on top. A toothpick inserted near the center will come out without wet batter on it (moist crumbs are fine.)
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then loosen around all the edges and invert onto a cooling rack.
- To make the glaze, add just enough of the tangerine juice to the sugar to make a fairly thick glaze.
- When the cake is cool, go to town with the glaze. Garnish with a sprinkle of poppy seeds and tangerine zest.
