BOURBON HONEY CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 9-inch angel food cake pan with a nonremovable bottom with oil, line the bottom with parchment paper, then oil and flour the pan.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the oil, granulated sugar, honey, brown sugar, eggs, orange zest, and vanilla on medium speed for one minute. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, cloves, allspice, and ginger and blend. Combine the coffee, orange juice, and bourbon in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. With the mixer on low, alternately add the flour and liquid mixtures to the oil-sugar mixture in thirds, beginning and ending with flour, until combined. Scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Don't worry; the batter will be very liquid!
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Rap the pan 5 times on the counter to get rid of any bubbles in the batter. Sprinkle the top with the almonds. Bake in the center of the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool completely, then remove from the pan and place almond side up on a flat serving plate. Serve at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Opt for a rich, dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. Use real butter or ghee instead of margarine, and choose a full-fat milk or cream for a creamier, more decadent hot chocolate.
- Don't skimp on the spices. The spices in this recipe are what give it that warm, cozy flavor. Be sure to use a good quality cinnamon stick and freshly grated nutmeg.
- Make it ahead of time. This hot chocolate can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve. Simply make the hot chocolate according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the hot chocolate in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the hot chocolate over low heat until warmed through.
Conclusion:
This honey bourbon hot chocolate is the perfect drink to warm you up on a cold winter night. It's rich, creamy, and decadent, with just the right amount of spice. The honey and bourbon add a touch of sweetness and complexity that takes this hot chocolate to the next level. Whether you're enjoying it by the fire or sipping it on a snowy afternoon, this hot chocolate is sure to please.
