Rosh Hashanah honey cake with chocolate glaze for a sweet new year celebration.
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup honey
  • 3 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup brewed coffee
  • 1 tablespoon jam (any flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3.5 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup margarine
  • 1 tablespoon brandy
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and gently grease two 8x3-inch loaf pans.
  • Combine the 4 cups of flour, 1 1/2 cups of sugar, honey, eggs, oil, coffee, jam, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and baking soda in a bowl until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly into the loaf pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Then, remove the cake from the pans and cool on a wire rack.
  • In a saucepan over low heat, combine 1/2 cup sugar, cocoa powder, water, and 1 teaspoon flour. Stir constantly for about 8 minutes until the mixture is smooth and thick. Remove from heat and stir in margarine and brandy until the glaze thickens. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before using.
  • Evenly coat the cakes with the glaze once they have cooled.
