Swedish Honey Cake

Submitted by iewe7726

"I found lots of Honey Cake recipes on 'zaar, but this one was a bit different with the OJ and the Cardamom.. The ingredient list looks like, but really just a lot of yummy spices. I found this recipe online, and it didn't state what size pan to use, so I would just use your best judgement based on the batter produced :)"

What a lovely cake this is. I needed to bake a cake in a hurry and since the prep time for this cake is only 15 minutes I thought I'd give it a try. The bakinig time was right on. The honey I used was the liquid variety so I didn't need to melt it. I didn't have any ground allspice so I ground my own from the dried berry. I also sprinkled some powdered sugar on the cake after it had cooled down. Made for the Soup-A-Stars ZWT9
