About recipe

For honey cake lovers, I suggest making a cake "Elena". It differs from the classic honey cake both in composition and in its preparation. It does not need to be cooked for a long time. In this cake, the aroma of honey and the taste of nuts are perfectly combined. the cake will be more liked by those who like dry, not soft cakes, as it is not too soaked. Any nuts can be used, it is best to use linden honey, but not buckwheat, this will give bitterness. Cakes should become a little golden in color, do not overcook it, otherwise the cake will be cool. So that during the leveling the cakes do not slide out, pierce them with skewers.
