The best reminder of a German Christmastime for me. Really good with butter on each slice. Gets better after a few days wrapped in foil.
Ingredients:
250 g honey
200 g sugar
1/4 liter milk
500 g flour
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
3 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon cardamom
1 teaspoon cinnamon
lemon rind
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Grease a bread pan.
3. Stir together all dry ingredients.
4. Slowly heat up honey and sugar on a low flame.
5. Then add milk while stirring honey mixture.
6. Heat up but do not boil.
7. Now add the warm liquid honey/milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir well.
8. Put it all into the greased bread pan.
9. Bake at 350 F for approximately 40 minutes.
10. Turn off the oven and leave cake in for another 5 - 10 minutes.
11. Honey Cake needs to be stored in a cool and moist place, The best place would be a moist stone pot in which you put a slice of bread, to keep it moist.
