Method of preparation
1
Combine alcohol (rum or cognac to choose from) with sugar, butter, spices and honey, cocoa and orange juice, raisins and prunes, mix and put on fire. It is also necessary to pour orange zest here – it will give a special astringency to the finished baking.
2
Turn on the oven and preheat to 180 degrees
3
When the honey and butter begin to melt and boil a little, reduce the heat and cook for 7-9 minutes, so that the mass becomes uniformly viscous, like liquid honey.
4
Set the finished base aside to cool. For convenience, pour into a dry, clean saucepan
5
Sift flour with baking powder, add almonds and eggs to the dry mixture. Stir. Combine with the base: it is important that the honey-spicy mass is not completely cooled down, optimally – 40-50 degrees. Mix well with a large spoon and put the dough into a pre-oiled mold. Bake with the door closed for 90-100 minutes
6
Wait for the cake to cool completely, remove it from the mold and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Do not worry that there is alcohol in the composition, it only sets off the tastes of cocoa and spices. Baking is allowed for children, in the absence of other contraindications

The dish is ready!
