GERMAN LEBKUCHEN CAKE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE FROSTING
Bon Appétit | December 1991 This moist Christmas cake takes its cues from the flavors and spices found in the classic Lebkuchen cookie. It's brushed with an orange-scented honey syrup, frosted with a creamy white chocolate icing and then surrounded by sliced almonds. I haven't made this yet but I love Lebkuchen cookies and this cake sounds wonderful.

Steps:
- For syrup:
- Using vegetable peeler, remove peel (orange part only) from oranges in strips. Mince enough peel to measure 4 tablespoons. Mix honey, orange juice and 2 tablespoons orange peel (reserve remaining 2 tablespoons peel for cake) in heavy medium saucepan. Boil until reduced to 3/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Set honey syrup aside.
- For cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Butter 9-inch square baking pan with 2-inch-high sides. Line bottom with waxed paper. Butter paper. Dust pan with flour. Using electric mixer, beat first 8 ingredients in large bowl until fluffy. Mix in reserved 2 tablespoons minced orange peel. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift flour, baking soda and baking powder into medium bowl. Mix half and half and lemon juice in small bowl. Beat dry ingredients alternately with half and half mixture into butter mixture, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix in currants. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. (Cake will not rise to top of pan.) Cool cake 20 minutes. Run small sharp knife around pan sides to loosen. Turn cake out onto rack; cool. Peel off paper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover syrup and cake separately and let stand at room temperature.)
- For frosting:
- Melt chocolate in top of double boiler over simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Cool to barely luke warm. Using electric mixer, beat butter and cream cheese until light. Add chocolate and 1/4 cup honey syrup and beat until smooth and light. Chill until thick enough to spread, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
- Cut cake horizontally in half. Place bottom layer cut side up on platter. Brush with 1/4 cup honey syrup. Spread 1 1/4 cups frosting over. Brush remaining 1/4 cup syrup over cut side of top cake layer. Place cake cut side down atop filled layer. Set aside 2/3 cup frosting for garnish. Spread remaining frosting over top and sides of cake. Press almonds around sides. Spoon remaining 2/3 cup frosting into pastry bag fitted with small star tip. Pipe frosting decoratively around top edge of cake. Chill cake until frosting sets, about 1 hour. Garnish with orange slices or orange peel ribbons. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Let stand 2 hours at room temperature before serving.).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Toss the candied lemon and orange peel with about 1/4 cup all-purpose flour to keep it from sticking together and then pulse in a food processor until finely minced. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Add the sugar, honey and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
- Add the ground almonds and hazelnuts, salt, baking powder, Lebkuchengewürz, and candied lemon and orange peels and stir vigorously until thoroughly combined. (You can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat for about 2 minutes). The mixture will be wet but if it is too thin to scoop onto the oblaten add some more almond or hazelnut meal.
- Scoop the mixture onto the Backoblaten, smoothing down the top and leaving just a slight space around the edges. Set them on a lined cookie sheet.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 25-30 minutes. Remove the cookie sheet and allow to cool completely.
- Once cooled, place a wire rack over a cookie sheet (to catch the drippings). Dip half the Lebkuchen in the chocolate glaze and half in the sugar glaze, letting the excess drip back into the bowl and then place the Lebkuchen on the wire rack. Arrange 3 almonds on each Lebkuchen while the glaze is still wet. Let the Lebkuchen dry completely until the glaze is hardened.
- Keep stored in an airtight container. Will keep for several weeks and the flavor improves with time.
- Makes about 35 if using 70mm Backoblaten and about 25 if using 90mm Backoblaten.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C or 356°F top to bottom heat.
- Line a baking tray (30 x 40 cm / 12 x 17 inches) (affiliate link) with baking parchment and grease the edges with butter.
- Using a handmixer or stand mixer combine the eggs with the sugar, vanilla sugar, butter and mix until creamy. (This should take about 5 minutes)
- Combine the flour, baking powder (affiliate link), cocoa in a bowl. Using a flour sieve, sieve the flour mixture into the dough. This will make your gingerbread cake light and fluffy, as it adds air to the dough. Pour in the milk and add the salt, lebkuchen spice / gingerbread spice and ground almonds. Mix until you achieve a smooth dough.
- Pour or spread the dough with a pallet knife into the prepared baking tray. Bake in the oven for approximatley 25 minutes. Exact baking time varies by oven. To check if the dough is done, prick a skewer in the middle. If it comes out clean, it is done.
- Leave to cool completley before decorating.
- In the meantime place a little water (500 ml/ 16 fl oz) in a saucepan and add the raw almonds. Bring the water to a boil and cook the almonds for around 2 minutes before removing them with a sieve. Rinse in cold water. The skin of the almonds should now simply slip off.
- Melt the dark chocolate glaze in a waterbath. Pour the melted chocolate over the cooled cake, and spread evenly with a pallet knife.
- Before the glaze hardens, place the almonds in an X formation on the dark chocolate (see image). Leave to cool. Once the cake is cooled you can slice the cakes into rectangles or squares.
