Ingredients

    300g butter
    1 cup Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar
    2 Tbsp grated orange rind
    4 eggs
    3 cups grated pumpkin
    1/2 cup macadamia nuts finely chopped
    2 cups flour
    2 tsp cinnamon
    1 tsp mixed spice
    4 tsp baking powder
    1/2 cup milk approx.
    4 Tbsp oil

    Sour Cream Orange Icing

    4 Tbsp sour cream
    2 tsp grated orange rind
    small amount of orange juice

    Cream butter, sugar and orange rind, add eggs and beat in well. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well to combine. Pour mixture into two well-greased or baking paper lined 20-22 cm cake tins. Bake for 35-40 mins at 175°C. Cool on a wire rack

Agree this is a great cake, even made it for a wedding cake once!

Easy to make. Wondered about the quantity of butter plus oil, and found the cake very greasy. Will not bake this cake again. Tasted ok.
