Chocolate-Glazed Honey Cake

Recipesfull introduces to you: Frosting and Icing Recipes. (Chocolate-Glazed Honey Cake). This is my mother's traditional honey cake, made every year for the Jewish new year Rosh Hashanah. We eat honey cake in order to have a sweet new year. I love the glaze for this especially - the cake is a little dry. I could eat the glaze with a spoon! Best served with tea.
