Get ready to sink your teeth into the most divine citrus layer cake with a marshmallow filling that will make your taste buds do the happy dance!

This irresistible recipe is a game-changer, and we’re thrilled to share it with you. Imagine a moist and fluffy cake, infused with the sweetness of orange juice and zest, paired with a layer of toasted marshmallows and a drizzle of creamy orange glaze.

First, preheat your oven to 350°F and get ready to grease two 8-inch pans – one round cake pan for the top layer and one springform pan for the bottom layer. Don’t forget to dust them with flour for an extra-non-stick boost!

In a large bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Set it aside for now, but don’t worry, it’ll be back in the spotlight soon!

In another large bowl, beat the shortening on medium speed while gradually adding the granulated sugar. Yes, it’s time to get your mix on! Beat until it’s light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. You got this!

Now it’s time to bring in the flour mixture and continue beating until it’s thoroughly combined and the batter is smooth. Add the milk, orange juice, and orange zest, and mix well until the batter is smooth and creamy, another 1 to 2 minutes.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake on the center rack until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Test if the cake is done by inserting a wooden toothpick into the center – if it comes out clean, it’s done! If not, return it to the oven for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.

While the cake is cooling, it’s time to make the orange glaze. Beat the butter on medium speed until light and fluffy, then add the orange zest and salt. Mix to combine, then add half of the powdered sugar and half of the orange juice. Blend until thoroughly combined, then add the remaining powdered sugar and orange juice. Continue blending until the glaze is smooth and thin enough to spoon over the cake.

Now it’s time to assemble this masterpiece! Remove the bottom cake layer from the springform pan and transfer it to a cake plate. Spoon about half of the orange glaze over the toasted marshmallows, then top with the second cake layer. Finish by spooning the remaining orange glaze over the top. Slice and serve – it’s time to indulge in this citrusy delight!

This cake is a real showstopper, and the combination of orange and marshmallows is absolute perfection. So go ahead, take a bite, and let the citrusy goodness transport you to a world of pure bliss!
