Heat sugar and honey. Sift dry ingredients and spices. Add warm sirup to dry ingredients. Add orange peel and nuts. Add enough milk so that batter is thin and can be poured easily. Pour into greased pan, layer or loaf. Bake in slow oven for 45 minutes. Increase heat somewhat for second half of baking. When done brush warm cake with sweetened milk and sprinkle with nuts (op.). Serve next day, slice thin. This is a Swiss recipe and uses no eggs and little sugar. |
