Tiessennau Mel (honey Cakes) Welsh image

This is an adopted recipe and after trying it out, I must say I was very surprised on how good it tastes! Kinda homey. I don't dredge it with sugar before or after baking as I don't really need the extra bit of sugar. I used Wildflower honey.

1 egg
2 -3 tablespoons milk

  • Beat the yolk into sugar and butter, then add the honey, gradually.

These honey cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of honey next time.
