One-Bowl Chocolate & Orange Sponge Cake Recipe on Food52

"Chocolate and orange is a classic combination of flavors. This cake recipe starts with a very light orange-scented sponge, using an easy all-in-one method...."

INGREDIENTS
250 grams unsalted butter, very soft (I take mine out of the fridge to soften overnight)
1/2 teaspoon table salt
250 grams golden caster sugar (plain caster sugar or light brown sugar work equally well)
250 grams self-rising flour (see note for substitution)
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons whole milk, at room temperature
1 teaspoon orange extract (if you don\'t have this, use orange juice)
1 1/2 tablespoons orange zest (the zest from one medium navel orange, approximately)
5 large eggs, at room temperature
400 milliliters heavy cream
100 grams slices of Terry’s chocolate orange, roughly chopped
200 grams high quality 70% dark chocolate, roughly chopped
100 grams hazelnuts, roasted and chopped, for garnish
5 to 10 segments Terry’s chocolate orange, for garnish
