Orange Marmalade Cake

I love orange flavour. Anything made with it is always YES to me :)

I had made marbled orange chocolate cake many times but making an orange marmalade cake was always in my to do list.  So one fine day I decided to make this wonderful cake.  
I bought a nice orange marmalade specially for making this and started making this cake.  I wanted to make it eggless but as I was not following any recipe,as usual, I did'nt want to take any risk with the texture and taste of this cake so made it with egg.  This time I was not bothered about the eggy smell at all as there was more and more orange flavour I was gonna use in this cake.  Eggy smell can easily be suppressed with orangy flavour. 

So tried with egg that too only one.. and the final result was just amazing.  I loved the cake to the core. Orange flavour came out very well in it.  You don't need any frosting or icing .. just make it slice it n dig in. Its gonna be hit among the kids.
Here is the recipe for this wonderful cake.  Do try.

Happy Cooking :)
