Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a cake pan.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
-
Once the cake is cooled, spread the orange marmalade evenly over the top.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until it begins to steam.
-
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chocolate. Let it sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.

Pour the chocolate glaze over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides.

Sprinkle powdered sugar and orange zest on top for garnish.

Let the cake rest for 30 minutes before serving.
