Como fazer Fudgy Orange Zucchini Cake With Orange Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 cup buttermilk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in 2 cups grated zucchini, the zest of 2 large oranges, and ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cake cools, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cups powdered sugar, ¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Add more orange juice, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  11. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
