As mentioned before, one recipient’s of my Oreo truffles wife made gave us two heaping slices of honey cake, an item I’ve never had in any form.

Per the fella, this is a common Russian confection around the holidays. Let me just say this...

This is the best cake I’ve ever had. I don’t think I can put it into words properly. The cake layers taste like... Like, if Golden Grahams cereal could exist in cake form. The frosting is solid, smooth, and savory. Not even sweet. It’s not quite spicy like gingerbread. It’s just extra T H I C C and homemade.

My wife wants the recipe. I just want to take what’s left and melt it into some crude liquid form, and infect it into my genitals, and possibly other locations. This is hands down a death-bed homemade dish.

Well anyway... Thanks for reading, as always.

If you should ever be graced with that recipe, please share it with the class. Or at least me.

I saw a recipe for this dessert from a youtube who plas a hilariously over-the-top Slavic man character. So heads up, it might not be your thing, but his end result looked very similar to what you posted.

....Use of an axe is optional, but encouraged if you do it yourself.

At first I thought it was a photo of a very large hamburger.

Looks tasty.

After showing us this goodness it’s a moral imperative to pass the recipe along.

I make this cake several times a year and it is amazing! There is a great recipe on the New York Times website that I use.

That looks amazing. I found the recipe below, and the picture sure looks like what you shared. The recipe sounds a little challenging, but from your description it sounds worth it.
