Cranberry Sauce Cake

By JimMac

Ingredients

• ICING:
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups granulated white sugar
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• One 16-ounce can whole berry cranberry sauce
• 1/3 cup orange juice
• 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon orange extract
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
• 1 to 2 tablespoons orange juice

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 10-inch tube pan generously with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, combine all cake ingredients, stirring in nuts last. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake 60 to 70 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack and cool completely.

In a medium bowl, combine icing ingredients- adding enough juice to create a drizzling consistency. Drizzle icing over cake.

Tips:
Add orange extract to icing for more orange flavor.
If you are unable to locate orange extract, you may leave it out... but the orange flavor won't be quite as pronounced.
