Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract, orange zest, and orange juice.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and fresh orange juice until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
