Upside Down Choco Orange Cake Recipe is a delicious upside down orange cake filled with lots of chocolate chips - with a melt-in-the-mouth light texture. Wheat flour makes it very healthy.Our original recipe contained only maida and no wheat flour. For a healthy twist, I have replaced half the maida with the same amount of wheat flour. Adding wheat flour makes the cake dense. Hence, for a lighter texture, we have added additional 2 tablespoons of orange juice and also reduced the baking temperature.This cake is ideal to be served at kid parties and also for your friends and relatives with hot cup of tea or coffee during evening. This can also make a nice party dessert when served with a scoop of ice cream, chocolate sprinkles and a dribble of chocolate sauce.Serve Upside Down Choco Orange Cake Recipe with Maple Roasted Cinnamon Spiced Latte Recipe for teatime.If you like this recipe, try more recipes likePineapple Upside Down Cake RecipeStrawberry Upside Down Muffin RecipeUpside Down Pear Ginger Cake Recipe
