HONEYED LEMON-BERRY SNACK CAKE
Honey not only pairs beautifully with citrus and berries, but it also is hygroscopic, which means that it pulls moisture from the air. This property helps create the cake's moist, dense, almost-pound-cake-like texture and will continue to improve the texture in the days after baking.

Steps:
- For the cake: Position a rack to the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square, light-colored metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, and then line the pan with an 8-inch wide strip of parchment paper, leaving several inches of overhang on the opposite sides of the pan.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a separate medium bowl, using a handheld mixer, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks.
- In another medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, honey, applesauce, oil, lemon juice, vanilla extract and lemon zest. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour, and fold gently to blend. Add about one-third of the whipped egg whites to the batter, and stir to blend well. Add the remaining whipped whites, and fold gently just until no visible clumps of the egg white remain.
- Remove the berries from the freezer. Scrape half of the batter into the prepared pan and smooth evenly. Sprinkle half of the frozen berries over the batter. Pour and smooth the remaining batter, and then scatter with the remaining berries. Bake until the cake is deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 50 to 55 minutes.
- Cool for 10 minutes in the pan set on a wire rack.
- For the glaze: Whisk together the honey and lemon juice in a small bowl.
- Spoon the glaze over the warm cake, letting it absorb before adding more. Cool the cake completely, and then slice and serve.

HONEY NUT COFFEE CAKE
New York City stinks. Garbage, exhaust, crowds of human beings, and who really knows what. Fortunately there are little pockets of fragrance everywhere. My favorite city smell comes from the street-nut carts. The men who mind the carts stand all day long tossing peanuts in sugar over heat in copper drums, sending burnished sugar smoke wafting down the sidewalk. There's no need to advertise or call out for customers. That smell, on an early fall afternoon, half hot and half cool, is like a magnet. This candied-peanut butter cake is an ode to those nut-cart guys. Thank you for making New York a little more wonderful. Add 2 cups of raspberries to the cake if you'd like a peanut butter and jelly effect, or keep it plain for simple butter-nut bliss.

Steps:
- Prepare the peanut topping: In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, honey, and cream. Heat the mixture over medium heat until the butter is melted, stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, until a bit lighter in color, about 3 minutes. Add the peanuts and cook until the caramel thickens slightly, 1 minute more. Transfer to a bowl and let cool, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the cake batter.
- Prepare the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round springform pan.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla. On low speed, beat in half of the flour mixture, then the milk, and then the last half of the flour mixture.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Dollop the top of the batter with the peanut mixture and spread it out evenly. Bake the cake until the top is caramelized, the cake is set, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 55 to 65 minutes. Cover the cake with foil if it starts to brown too quickly.
- Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes, then remove the ring and let the cake cool completely before serving.
HONEY BUN CAKE I
This cake tastes just like the name suggests - like a honey bun. It has been served to hundreds of people and everyone has said how much they liked it. It is a sweet cake and not for those that are watching their weight. Tastes wonderful if served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.

CINNAMON HONEY SNACK CAKE
A "cake" born of my love for pancakes and desperation at not having a stove in my current location. The "cake" isn't overly sweet, and is surprisingly moist for being cooked in the microwave, a fact that I attribute to the addition of the cinnamon.

VANILLA SNACK CAKES
Despite some tall tales, Hostess Twinkies do not last forever. The box of Twinkies that my friends gave me as a gag gift were, in fact, hard as a rock in less than a year. These cream-filled chiffon cake snacks, made with real, unprocessed dairy and eggs and whole-grain flours, won't last nearly as long as preservative-laden Twinkies, but you will almost certainly gobble them up in no time at all.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a canoe-style snack cake pan. If you don't have a snack cake pan, you can use 4-ounce loaf pans. Alternatively, create your own molds out of foil by shaping double thicknesses of aluminum foil around a spice bottle and setting the individual foil pieces next to each other in a cake pan.
- Sift the spelt flour, ground millet flour, baking powder, and salt together and set aside.
- In a dry mixer bowl with dry beaters, beat the egg whites until stiff, about 2 minutes. Transfer the beaten egg whites to a clean bowl and set aside.
- In the same mixer bowl, add the sugar, honey, water, oil, egg yolks, and vanilla and beat for 1 minute. Add the flour mixture and beat until smooth, about 2 minutes. Fold in half of the beaten egg whites; once the first half is fully incorporated, fold in the second half.
- Pour the batter into the prepared molds, filling them 2/3 of the way full. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. Cool the cakes in the pan for at least 20 minutes, then remove to a wire rack and cool completely before filling with the Snack Cake Crème.
- To fill the cakes, use a skewer or chopstick to poke 2 holes partially through the snack cake from the bottom, and wiggle around to hollow out some space. Use a piping bag fitted with a Bismarck (#230) tip or a very small star-shaped tip to fill the cake with the Snack Cake Crème.
- To make raspberry snack cakes, make the snack cakes as directed. Coat each filled snack cake with raspberry jam and dust with shredded coconut. They will be sticky and delicious.
- Or for Chocolate-Coated Snack Cakes, try dipping your snack cakes in melted chocolate.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your cake the best flavor and texture. If you can, use organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Be sure to measure your ingredients correctly: Incorrect measurements can ruin your cake. Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake at the correct temperature: The correct baking temperature will vary depending on the recipe. Be sure to follow the recipe instructions carefully.
- Don't overbake the cake: Overbaking the cake can make it dry. Check the cake for doneness a few minutes before the end of the baking time.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature: The cake will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Honey nut snack cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture, sweet honey flavor, and crunchy nuts, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special treat, be sure to give honey nut snack cake a try.
