OLDE ALMOND-VANILLA-HONEY CAKE

I've only started making this cake recently, but it has already become one of our household's favorites! It's divine almond-vanilla-honey flavor is reminiscent of olde world cuisine; the dense texture makes the cake lush and hearty! We top the cake with rich dark chocolate and pair it with vanilla ice cream for an enchanting treat!

Ingredients
1 cup flour (we use white spelt flour!)
1/2 cup fine ground almonds
1/2 cup course ground almonds
1/2 cup milk flour (optional, adds a creamy taste)
1.5 teaspoons pure white Stevia powder (more or less, depending upon taste)
2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt

2 eggs
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup honey
1/2 tsp. natural almond oil (more or less, depending upon taste)

1.7 ounces (50 grams) dark chocolate

Directions
Let butter, eggs and buttermilk reach room temperature. Mix the butter with the honey, either by hand or with a mixer. Then add in the eggs, mix well. Finally, stir in the buttermilk and almond oil.

Simply place the dry ingredients into a separate bowel, mix well by hand.

Pour the dry into the wet ingredients. Mix either by hand or with a mixer. The batter's texture should be reminiscent of waffle or very thick pancake batter, not as runny as regular cake batter.

Bake at 350°F (175°C), for 25-30 minutes. Insert a toothpick to test for doneness; when the cake is done, the toothpick will come out near but not completely clear.

Now add the finishing touch! Simply heat the chocolate on the stove using a very low heat, then coat the top of the cake in a layer of decadent dark chocolate! You might even try sprinkling with course chopped almonds!

Enjoy!
