Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan.
- To make the candied orange, combine Orange-peel, Sugar, and Water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the peel is translucent and the syrup has thickened. Drain the orange peel and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all Dry Ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, cream together Butter and Sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in Eggs one at a time, then stir in Molasses and Milk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely. Top with Candied Orange before serving.
