Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
In one bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. In another bowl, beat the sugar and butter, add the eggs, honey, milk, and baking soda, and mix well.
Step 2
Add the dry mixture to the butter-egg mixture in 2-3 portions and mix until smooth. Add dried cranberries to taste. I used about a handful.
Step 3
Grease the cake pan with butter and lightly dust with flour. Pour in the batter and place in a preheated oven at 355°F for 40-45 minutes until cooked through.
Step 4
The finished cake can be drizzled with icing: add a few drops of lemon juice to 3-4 tablespoons of powdered sugar and mix well. The mixture should be thick and opaque.
