Favorite Honey Cake

Every year come September I always get requests for my Honey Cake recipe.Half of the Mother's in my older son's class have been making it for years! If you like a moist Honey Cake and a super easy recipe - this is it!I originally got this recipe from one of my nieces and adapted it.

• Ready In: 1 hr 15 mins
• Serves: 16

Ingredients

• 2  large eggs
• 3⁄4 cup honey (I use wald honig aka forest honey)
• 1  cup sugar
• 1⁄2 cup  vegetable oil, plus
• 1  tablespoon  vegetable oil
• 1  teaspoon baking soda
• 1  teaspoon baking powder
• 1  teaspoon  cocoa
• 1  teaspoon cinnamon
• 2  cups flour
• 1  cup  strong coffee

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the eggs, honey, sugar and oil until well blended. Tip: Measure the oil first and use the same measuring cup for the honey- it will slide right out!
2. In a separate bowl combine the remaining dry ingredients.
3. Add approximately 1/3 of the dry ingrdients to the honey mixture. Mix.
4. Add 1/3 of the coffee. Mix.
5. Repeat process, adding 1/3 dry ingredients and 1/3 coffee until everything is mixed together.
6. Grease a baking form/pan (I use a Silicon Kugelhopf form, 16cm high & 24cm wide, which makes a beautiful presentation) with margarine and coat with coconut flakes.
7. Pour batter into form.
8. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 1 hour.(Baking time varies depending upon what form you use.Check that toothpick comes out clean - if crumbs are on it, that's fine)
