ORANGE CAKE WITH BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Oil or butter a 10-inch Bundt pan or 9-inch round cake or springform pan.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together crème fraîche, oil, sugar, orange zest, orange juice, lemon juice, and vanilla.
• Add eggs and whisk until incorporated.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and whisk until just combined. (Don't worry if there are small lumps; you don't want to overmix this cake or it will become dry.)
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Remove cake from oven, place the pan on a wire rack, and let cool for 15 minutes.
• Remove the cake from the pan by running a knife around the side of the pan and inverting it directly onto the wire rack. (If you've baked the cake in a flat-bottomed round cake pan rather than a Bundt pan, invert the cake onto the rack and flip it over so that the bottom of the cake, not the top, is resting on the wire rack-otherwise you'll end up with unattractive indentations from the cooling rack on the top.)
• Let cool completely.
• Transfer to a large plate or cake platter before glazing.
• When cake is completely cooled, drizzle the chocolate glaze over it until covered to your liking (you may have extra glaze left over) and let sit at room temperature at least 1 hour before serving.
• Serve at room temperature.
• Place 1/3 cup of the cream along with the butter, chocolate, and salt in a microwave-safe dish and heat on high for 1 minute, or until ream begins to boil.
• Stir to melt butter and chocolate. If a thinner consistency is desired, add a touch more of the cream and stir to combine.
