HONEY CAKE WITH HONEY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees with rack in center. Butter an 8-by-8-by-2-inch baking pan. Lightly dust with flour, tapping out excess. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and nutmeg, and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla, and set aside.
• In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter on medium-high until light and fluffy, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary, about 3 minutes. Add sugar and honey; beat mixture until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Add egg mixture a few tablespoons at a time, beating well for 2 to 3 minutes after each addition. Raise speed to high, and beat, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary, until very thick and light in color, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add flour mixture in 3 batches, beating just to combine after each addition. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake until a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack for 5 minutes. Turn cake out of pan and place on the wire rack, right side up, to cool completely.
• Transfer cake to serving platter. Using an offset spatula, spread the frosting evenly over the top of the cake.

FRESH-FIG CAKE WITH HONEY CREAM-CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Make the cake: Heat oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour a 10-inch cake pan (or two 9-inch pans), and line the bottom with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, baking soda and salt.
• Using an electric mixer, whisk to combine sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Whisk in oil and buttermilk or yogurt to combine.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold dry ingredients into egg mixture just until combined. Fold in figs, jam and pecans.
• Scrape into prepared cake pan and bake until browned and springy to the touch, about 65 to 75 minutes (or 35 to 45 minutes for the 9-inch pans). If the top gets too dark before the cake is finished baking, cover it with foil. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
• While cake is cooling, make the frosting: Using an electric mixer, beat butter, cream cheese and salt on low speed until smooth. Beat in honey and vanilla, then beat in confectioners' sugar.
• To assemble the cake, remove cooled cake from pan and peel off parchment paper. Slice cake in half horizontally, so you end up with 2 layers. (You don't need to do this for the 9-inch cakes.) Spread half the frosting between the layers, sandwiching it. Dollop remaining frosting in a thick layer on top of the cake, leaving a 1-inch border on the top of the cake, the sides, bare. Chill until ready to serve. Just before serving, top with sliced figs.

CARROT CAKE ROLL WITH HONEY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• For the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• Grease a 13-by-18-inch baking sheet with butter, line the bottom with parchment and generously butter and flour the paper.
• Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cardamom and salt in a small bowl. Put the eggs, granulated sugar and light brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light, thick and pale, about 5 minutes. With the mixer on low, add the grated carrots, then slowly add the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake until the top springs back when gently touched, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put a clean kitchen towel on a working surface. Sift 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar evenly over the towel. (This will prevent the cake from sticking to the towel.)
• Remove the cake from the oven as soon as finishes baking. Immediately loosen the edges of the cake and invert it onto the prepared kitchen towel. Peel off the parchment. Starting at a short end, gently roll up the warm cake and the towel together into a spiral. Transfer seam-side down to a wire rack and let cool completely.
• For the frosting: Combine the cream cheese, butter, raw honey and salt together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, add the confectioners' sugar and mix until completely combined, about 2 minutes. Increase the speed to high and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. The texture should be like thick Greek yogurt. If the frosting is a little soft, chill it in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes.
• To assemble: Carefully unroll the cake onto a cutting board with the towel underneath. Spread half of the frosting evenly over the cake with a small offset spatula. Evenly sprinkle the walnuts, dark raisins and golden raisins, making sure to distribute them all the way to the edges. Carefully roll up the cake again (without the towel). Transfer seam-side down to a platter. Frost the sides and ends of the cake with the remaining frosting and press the toasted shredded coconut all over the surface.
• Refrigerate the cake until fully chilled, about 2 hours. Slice and serve.
