Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. If you are using a silicone bundt pan, gently spray it with a light coat of baking spray.
  3. If you are using a metal bundt pan, coat the inside with a layer of crisco and then coat with flour.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
  5. In a separate, large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, butter and vegetable oil until creamy and fluffy.
  6. Whisk in the eggs until fully incorporated.
  7. Next, add in the buttermilk, orange juice and vanilla. Add in the vanilla pudding and whisk in.
  8. Mix in the orange zest.
  9. Lastly, add in the flour mixture and whisk together just until combined. Do not over mix.
  10. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and place into the preheated oven to bake for 1 hour 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  11. Once baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  12. Turn the bundt pan over onto a serving platter or cake plate to remove the cake.
  13. To make the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar and cocoa in a large bowl.
  14. Add in the vanilla and half of the milk. Whisk well
  15. If needed, whisk in more milk until the right consistency has been achieved.
  16. Spoon the glaze over the top of the bundt cake and allow it to drip down the sides. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the cake batter as it will cause the gluten to overdevelop and the cake will become crumbly.
  • When making the glaze, if it is too thick, after mixing extremely well, add in milk a tsp at a time. If it becomes too thin, add in powdered sugar 1 Tbs at a time. After each addition, be sure to whisk well. It takes a while for the glaze to come together so do not become impatient.
  • Cake may be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
