-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 large eggs -- separated
1 cup sugar, divided
Grated zest of 1 orange
1/2 cup bland olive oil
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups milk
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour -- sifted
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Confectioner's sugar
Preheat oven to 375. Butter and flour 10 inch tube or Bundt pan.
Beat egg yolks, 3/4 cup of the sugar and the orange zest until very pale and creamy. Beat
in olive oil and vanilla.
In measuring cup, stir together milk and baking powder, add to batter. Lower speed to slow and mix in the
flour, be careful not to overbeat.
Beat egg whites until frothy, gradually add remaining sugar. Beat until whites are nearly stiff. Fold about 1/4 of the whites into the batter, then fold in remaining whites.
In small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of the batter with the cocoa. Pour half of the vanilla batter
into the pan, top with cocoa batter. With a butter knife, swirl the batters together. Top with remaining vanilla batter.
Bake until cake is golden and springs back when pressed gently, about 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on rack for 10 minutes, unmold and sprinkle with confectioner's sugar while still warm. Cool and sprinkle again.
