preheat oven to 350˚

generously grease two loaf pans

in the bowl of a stand mixer beat butter and sugar for 5 minutes or until it's light and fluffy

while it's beating zest the oranges and then juice them

add the orange zest to the sugar mixture

add eggs mixing well after each addition

stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl, make sure to scrape off the beater as well, the zest has a tendency to get hung up on it

mix the flour with the baking soda and baking powder

mix the milk with a 1/4 cup of the orange juice, reserve the rest of the juice for the icing

add 1/4 of the flour mix to the mixing bowl, follow it with 1/3 of the liquid, repeat beginning and ending with the flour, pulse between addition

scrape down the bowl and mix by hand a few times to make sure everything is well combined

divide the batter between the greased loaf pans

bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean

cool for 15 minutes, then remove from the pans and cool completely

once cooled mix the two cups of powdered sugar with 2-3 Tablespoons of the leftover orange juice for a glaze, start with the smallest amount adding small amounts until the glaze is thin enough to drizzle and thick enough to cling
