This is a delicious cake. A dollop of whipped cream and a little drizzle of caramel sauce - a high end restaurant quality desert. Per the James Beard version, I boiled the oranges for only 30 minutes, and left out the vanilla. Fast batter; great taste. Tweak: For Nigella's Chocolate Orange Flourless Cake, increase almond flour to 2 cups, sugar to 1 1/4 cup, add 1/2 cup cocoa, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
