I'd like to make a honey cake for Rosh Hashana. I've never made it before and every recipe for it calls for coffee. I am just wondering, it that standard? Can you taste the coffee in the cake, or is it just there to add moistness?

Does anybody know?

I Believe you can skip the coffee in the recipe.
It's only there for taste.

You cannot taste the actual coffee. It enhances the flavor of the cake.

Honey Cake

2 eggs
3/4 cup honey
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp. oil
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cocoa
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup strong coffee (1 c hot water w spoonful of coffee granules)
2 cups flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With electric mixer, beat all ingredients together for 3 minutes. (I don't use the mixer. Batter will be runny.) Pour into 2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake for 40 minutes. (may take a little longer or less) Test for doneness by sticking a toothpick into middle of cake. If it comes out dry it is done. ENJOY!!
