ORANGE ICING
From: chlamy@... (Elizabeth Harris) Date: Mon, 7 Mar 1994 18:20:53 GMT I got this recipe from a coworker about 25 years ago. She was of Italian-American background and referred to it as Italian Orange Spice Cake.
Use 9x13S pan. Grease it and dust it with flour. Preheat oven to 350.
Blend oil and milk. Beat in eggs and beat until well blended. Mix the sugars and add the egg mixture. Combine all dry ingredients before adding to sugar mixture. Mix well. Last add nuts and liquid flavorings. Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350. Do not overbake as it will dry out.
ORANGE ICING: Mix together in order given. Spread on cake after it is cool.
