Ingredients
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice, ground
1/4 teaspoon cloves, ground
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cup flour, unbleached, unsifted
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup almonds, ground
1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup milk
----ALMOND GLAZE----
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon rum
1 tablespoon water
Cooking Directions:
Stir together the spices, salt flour, and baking powder. Stir in the almonds and lemon rind. In a separate bowl beat the eggs and sugar until a ribbon is formed when the beater is removed. Stir in the honey and milk. Gradually stir in the flour mixture; beat until smooth. Spread the batter in an 11 X 17-inch jelly roll pan that is well greased and floured. Bake at 400 degrees F for 12 to 15 minutes, until the cake is done. While the cake is still warm, turn it out onto a wire rack. To make the almond glaze, mix the confectioners' sugar, almond extract, rum, and 1 to 2 T of water. Beat until glaze is smooth and of the right consistency. Add more water to thin if neccessary. Spread the warm cake with the almond glaze. Cut cake into 1 X 2 1/2-inch bars while still warm. Spice bars keep 6 to 8 weeks in a sealed container if not glazed. Makes 4 dozen bars.
