Orange Cream Cheese Bread

This looks good although I may skip the nuts.  I am not sure I would miss them in this recipe.  I may try this out at work.  I have a good bunch of good critics there and they don't mind being my occasional guinea pigs!  I wonder what this would taste like if I swapped out the orange juice for some ruby red grapefruit juice?

1-8 oz.	package cream cheese, softened
1/2 C.	shortening
1 2/3 C.	granulated sugar
2	eggs
2 1/4 C.	all-purpose flour
1 tsp	salt
1 Tbsp	baking powder
1 C.	milk
1/2 C.	chopped walnuts
2 Tbsp	grated orange peel
1/4 C.	orange juice

Combine cream cheese and shortening, creaming well.

Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy.

Add eggs, beating well after each addition.

Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix well after each addition.

Stir in walnuts and orange peel.

Pour batter into 2 greased and floured 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 3 inch loaf pans.

Bake at 375 degrees F for 55 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.

Let cool in pan for 10 mintues. Then sprinkle orange juice over loaves. Remove to wire rack to finish cooling
