Nana's Honey Cake


The whiskey gives it a rich flavor and of course the alcohol evaporates with baking. People who say they don't like honey cake like this one.

6 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups honey
1 1/3 cups oil
1 1/4 cups hot water mixed with 6 teaspoons instant coffee
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon allspice
2 teaspoons ginger
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup whiskey

Beat eggs and sugar. Add all liquids and mix. Then add dry ingredients. Line 9x13 pan with wax paper. Bake at 300 degrees for approximately 1 hour, until an inserted knife comes out clean. You can also pour the batter in small pans.

Outstanding Recipe
I made the recipe as posted. It tastes fabulous. Took it in to work and got rave compliments even from a co-worker that may not have honey cake at the top of her list. You just can't miss with this.
