Recipe Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 cups flour
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp almonds
• 1/2 tbsp cloves
• 2 tbsp baking powder
• Salt to taste

Method:

In a small bowl combine lemon juice, powdered sugar and 2 eggs whites. Beat them well and set aside to thicken. We will use this mixture for icing.

In another bowl combine eggs and sugar. Mix them well. Add honey, flour, baking powder, a pinch of salt and mix well to make the dough.

Take a baking dish and butter it. Add the dough to the dish. Roll out to 1 – 2 inch thick. Garnish with dry fruits if you wish.

Bake the cake for 15 min at 350F. Keep in fridge for 30 min.

Once it cools garnish with the icing and serve.

As with all recipes which involve cooking and baking a sensible approach must be taken especially when dealing with warm or hot (temperature) ingredients. If you are unable to take due care, please do not attempt to make any of these recipes. All recipes are tried at your own risk.
