Have you had your fill of honey cakes yet?! Every Rosh Hashanah I make my mums (Yossi’s mum) apple cake! It’s simple and so moist and delicious. I made it in mini springform pans for aesthetics but feel free to make it in a regular ole pan. The honey whiskey ice cream is a fun twist of flavors for this time of year. Have your apple + honey in the form of cake and ice cream. What could be better?
