Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

3/4 cup sugar
2/3 cup milk
juice of two marmalade (Seville) oranges
zest of two marmalade oranges
2 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla
Icing
2 cups icing sugar
3 tbsp milk

Directions
Set your oven to 350. Cream the butter, sugar, and vanilla in a stand mixer or bowl. Then mix in the eggs, followed by the milk, orange juice, and orange zest. Next, add the flour, salt & baking powder and mix or stir until everything is combined. Grease a loaf pan with butter and pour in the mixture. Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from the oven to cool. To make the icing, combine the milk, icing sugar and vanilla in a bowl and then add the orange zest. Ice your pound cake once it’s cooled. Store for 3-5 days in an airtight container. Enjoy!
Notes:
If you prefer a thicker icing, add more icing sugar to your icing mixture, a tbsp at a time.
