Author Notes
This was an adaptation of Maialino’s Olive Oil Cake. I used lemon zest and juice instead of orange, and I used Ouzo instead of Grand Marnier. I’m not a fan of orange flavored cakes. I like to use plain yogurt instead of milk, so I used all the plain yogurt I had and the rest milk to add up to the total amount of milk in the original recipe. I baked 6 Bundt Muffin cakes and an 8” round cake. I also made a rhubarb compote, because my husband likes rhubarb. Just felt it need some Tito absorb all the Olive Oil. —Sherrie Rogers
