Can I make cupcakes out of this recipe? If so how long do you think it needs to bake?

I believe you need 1.5x the recipe for a 9x13.

Hey all!
So I tried one of the honey cakes on this website last year instead of using my mother's recipe, and although it was good I found it a bit too much. Maybe it was too sweet or something I don't really remember.
So this year I'm making my mother's recipe and it really is the best!
Give it a try and let me know how it is!

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!!

I just made it today and already had like 5 slices!! Someone stop me!

I've never made honey cake before-- if I make this today, should I freeze it to keep fresh until RH? I have the spare time to do some cooking now but don't know if it will freeze & thaw well.

Can you make this honey cake in a 9 by 13 pan? If so, how long do I back it for?
Thanks

Can you taste the cocoa? Can you leave it out?

I dont taste the cocoa..it probably helps the flavor in some way...but its def not an overwhelming taste. if you have it put it in...if not...leave it out in my opinion.

I'd also like to know if this works in a 9x13 or a 9" round. I don't have loaf pans.

See the second response on this page regarding how many recipe you needs in order to make it in a 9x13 pan.

do you let the coffee come to room temperature or can you pour the cup of hot coffee straight into the batter?

how much coffee do you put into the hot water? tsp/tbsp?

More like a spoonful so maybe around a TB? eyeball it. I dont let it cool very much, but be sure its not too hot to cook the eggs

BTW I made a healthy version honey cake that I will post in a few mins!

This looks great- a few questions...
I want to make a fancy looking cake to give to someone erev Succos. Is one batter enough for a bunt pan?
Would it taste good with a basic vanilla glaze and toasted almonds on top?
TIA!
