Honey cake is easy to make, its whole secret lies in baking the cakes, and it has few ingredients. The most important thing is honey. It is best to use liquid honey so that the dough forms easily, and thick honey can be melted with a steam bath.
It is better to use sour cream in this cake. From it, the cake acquires a sour taste, and the cakes are soaked and become airy. For cream, fatty sour cream is best, and powdered sugar instead of sugar. Be sure to cool the sour cream before using.
When using, loose instead of baking soda, it is recommended to add it at the very end. Combine baking powder with flour and continue kneading.
One drawback to honey cake is how fast it will be eaten! Rest assured, you won't have to worry about its shelf life!
