I won a Grand Champion Ribbon at the Austin County Fair in Texas with this recipe. I garnished with orange slices around bottom of cake and orange zest on top for the contest. This is a truly good cake.

Cake is done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. (So not test by touching with finger. Crust will be darker than regular layer cake.)
