Mom's Honey Cake Recipe

PREHEAT YOUR OVEN TO 350F

​

This cake has 3 stages: 1)Dry ingredients 2) Creaming the eggs sugar and oil 3) Putting everything together

​

-First, prepare 1 cup of coffee (8oz), we need it to cool down for the later stages, so make this first

-Then prepare a 9x13" pan by greasing it

-Now lets start by mixing together the Flour, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Ground Cloves and Cinnamon in a separate bowl (not your mixer bowl). I like to use a large measuring cup, it makes things easier later on.

-Then, prepare your mixer, add the 7 eggs, the oil and Sugar

-Mix these 3 ingredients on high speed until some volume is achieved and the mix looks lighter, about 3 minutes

-Once you achieved volume, turn off the mixer. Bring the cool coffee, honey and dry ingredients near you

-Add the honey to the mixer bowl, start mixing on low speed

-Now, with the mixer on low, add 1/3rd of your dry ingredients and a 1/3rd of the cool coffee at a time, alternating between the two, making sure to wait in between batches for everything to absorb

-Once you added all your ingredients, bring the mixer up to medium speed and let everything mix until combined well and homogenous, about 2 minutes, we want a watery & smooth cake batter.

-Now that the cake batter is ready to bake, add it to your greased 9x13" pan, place in the center rack of your oven and bake for 50min and up to an hour on 350F

-The cake is ready when a toothpick placed in the center of the cake comes out dry and clean (no visible wet batter)

-Let the cake cool, and serve!
