My grandmother's original recipe from the Ukraine. This light, fluffy cake is delicious, healthy and smells heavenly. It also makes the ideal lunchbox treat. Keeps well at room temperature, but chances are, it will disappear before you can even think about storing it!

GRANDMA ROSE'S HONEY CAKE

I don't know who Grandma Rose is but if she is a "grammy", it must be good. This recipe came in a flyer from "The Chosen People" featuring "The Fall Feasts of Israel." This recipe is for a sweet snack for Rosh Hashanah. It has been a three-generation recipe in Grandma Rose's family. It probably goes back even further, as most family recipes do. Perhaps Moses mom baked it, considering that most of the ingredients were around in Bibical times.
