Categories     Dessert, Treat

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 15

140g unsalted butter , plus extra for greasing
300g clear honey
100g light brown sugar
375g self-raising flour
3 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground cloves
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp ground pepper
3 large eggs
200g plum jam
225ml double cream
140g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), finely chopped
3 tbsp clear honey
edible gold powder (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line the base and sides of a deep 20cm cake tin with baking parchment. Put the honey, sugar and butter in a medium saucepan and cook over a medium heat until fully melted. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Put the flour and spices in a large bowl and mix everything together.
  • Once the liquid ingredients have cooled, whisk in the eggs. Pour over the dry ingredients, whisking them together to form a smooth batter - be careful not to overmix as this can lead to a dry cake. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 50-55 mins or until risen and a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 20 mins before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, use a large serrated knife to slice the cake into 3 layers. Spread the jam across the 2 bottom cake layers, then reassemble the cake and set aside while you make the glaze. Put the cream, chocolate and honey in a medium pan and cook over a low-medium heat until the chocolate is melted and you have a smooth, pourable mixture. Put the cake on a wire rack set over a parchment-lined baking tray and pour over the glaze, making sure to cover the entire cake. Use a fish slice to carefully transfer the cake to a serving plate and allow the glaze to set. To decorate, dust with a little edible gold powder, if you like. Uniced, this cake will keep for up to 5 days. Once iced, enjoy within 3 days - just keep in the fridge, but remove before serving and eat at room temperature.

  • Prepare a 2 qt/2 litre cooking pot. Pour in the honey, add sugar and butter. Put on a really low heat and gradually bring to a near-boil, stirring continuously. Set aside to cool completely.
  • Add flour into the sugary mass gradually, kneading by hand or using a stand mixer (dough hook works well). The dough is dense and heavy, so make sure your equipment can take it.
  • When the dough is well kneaded, form a dough ball and place it into a bowl (stoneware bowls are great for this, but any container will do). Initially the dough can feel a bit loose, but with time it will become denser as it matures.
  • Cover with a linen cloth and leave in a cool place. If you live in a warm climate, you can store it on the lower shelves of the fridge.
