    Author: Eileen Goltz
    Serves: 8 - 10 servings
    Ingredients
    For Syrup:
    • 1 cup honey
    • ⅔ cup water
    • ⅓ cup sugar
    • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
    For Cake:
    • 2 cups almonds
    • 2 cups sugar
    • 1 cup matzah cake meal
    • 1 cup matzah meal
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
    • 6 large eggs
    • ½ cup oil
    • 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
    Instructions
    For Syrup:
    1. In a saucepan, combine the honey, water, sugar and lemon juice. Stir over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil one minute. Cool.
    For Cake:
    1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a 13x9-inch metal baking pan.
    2. Finely grind the almonds and ½ cup sugar in a food processor; transfer to medium bowl.
    3. Whisk in the matzah cake meal, matzah meal, cinnamon and allspice.
    4. Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs and remaining 1½ cups sugar in large bowl until very thick and pale in color, about 10 minutes.
    5. Beat in the oil and lemon peel. Fold in almond mixture. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
    6. Bake the cake until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
    7. Cut the hot cake into 32 squares; leave in pan. Drizzle cooled syrup over.
    8. Let stand until the syrup is absorbed, at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. This can be made two days ahead.
    9. Cool, cover and store at room temperature.
