Ingredients
- Cake
- 1 box Duncan Hines Signature Angel Food Cake Mix
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1 Tbsp. finely ground orange rind
- 2 tsp. finely grated lemon rind
- Sauce:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 2 cups orange juice
- 2 Tbsp. butter, cut into small chunks
- 1 Tbsp. finely grated lemon rind
- 1/8 tsp. salt
Directions
-
Move oven rack to lowest position. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-
Pour cake mix into clean, large mixing bowl. Whisk together water, orange and lemon rind. Add water-rind mixture. Prepare and bake according to package directions in ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
-
Prepare sauce while cake cools. Place sugar and cornstarch in small saucepan. Mix until well blended and no cornstarch lumps remain. Stir in orange juice. Cook over medium heat stirring frequently. Bring to a gentle boil and cook just until sauce thickens and lightly coats a spoon, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
-
Blend in butter, lemon rind and salt until smooth. If a richer sauce is desired, mix in 1 to 2 tablespoons more butter.
-
Serve each slice of cake with warm or room temperature sauce. Store sauce covered in refrigerator.
