Step 1

Preheat the oven to 160C/gas mark 3 and line a 24 x 20cm tray with greaseproof paper. Cream the butter and sugar together until really light and fluffy then add an egg at a time, beating well after each addition. Grate the zest over the mixture and add the orange juice, flour, nuts and dried fruit. Fold the flour and fruity nut mixture in with a metal spoon, slicing rather than beating. Spoon into the prepared tray and bake for 40 minutes until browned, well risen and a toothpick comes out of the centre of the cake clean.

Step 2

Whilst still warm brush with half the juice of the remaining orange and then sprinkle with 1.5 tbsp of icing sugar. Pour the rest of the juice over and then add the rest of the icing sugar. Leave to cool before slicing and enjoying with a cuppa. Very nice with ice-cream too by the way.
