Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the orange zest.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the orange juice and buttermilk. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Fold in the cranberries.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy. Spread the cream-cheese filling on top of the cooled cake.
  9. Garnish with orange zest.
  10. Let the gateau rest for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve and enjoy!
