Zubereitung von Tishpishti Greek Honey Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the margarine, coffee, brandy, honey, sugar, cinnamon, and allspice. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
  4. Remove from heat and gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
  5. Fold in the raisins and chopped almonds.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Score the dough with a sharp knife into approximately 3 dozen diamond shapes.
  7. Press a sliced almond into the center of each diamond.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake.
  9. While the cake is baking, prepare the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the 1/2 cup sugar, water, 2 tablespoons honey, and brandy. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice and orange blossom water.
  11. As soon as the cake is out of the oven, carefully cut through the score marks to separate the diamond pieces.
  12. Immediately pour the warm syrup evenly over the hot cake, ensuring all pieces are well coated.
  13. Return the cake to the warm oven for 5 minutes to help the syrup absorb.
  14. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  15. For best flavor, let the cake stand overnight before serving.
