Ingredients:

  • 2 1/3 cups sifted cake flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup clover honey
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 3/4 cup plain yogurt , plus
  • 2 tbsp plain yogurt
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 1 1/4 cups sifted powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 tbsp rum

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Grease and flour 1 (9-inch) tube pan or 1 (8 to 10-cup) fluted tube or bundt pan.
  3. Sift the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt together, then sift again into a large bowl. In another large bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer on high speed until creamy.
  4. Gradually add the honey and 1/4 cup of the sugar to the butter and beat on high speed until well mixed, 2 to 4 minutes.
  5. Beat in the egg yolks, 1 at a time.
  6. Beat on low and add the flour mixture in 3 parts, alternating with the yogurt in 2 parts.
  7. Beat until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
  8. In another large bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
  9. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, beating on high speed, until stiff.
  10. Fold the egg whites into the batter.
  11. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a tester comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes and then invert the cake onto the rack and allow to cool completely.
  13. In a small bowl combine the powdered sugar and rum and stir to combine. Mixture should be a stiff glaze. If the glaze is too thick, thin with a bit of milk.
  14. Using a spoon, drizzle the glaze all over the cake in a random pattern.
  15. Let the cake sit until the glaze has hardened.
  16. Serve.
