《 Winter spice cake with pomegranate molasses frosting 》
Yesterday I used to be the queen of procrastinating. I’m suppose to be finishing my research for a course I’m doing at work however I actually faffed round and in true Emma model baked a cake to place off getting caught into the work. Fortunately it’s a very good cake and nicely definitely worth the reality I’m now behind on my research. 🤦‍♀️

In case you’re a bbcgoodfood subscriber like me you’ll recognise this recipe from the 2021 calendar or this months complement. I improvised it barely and made the spice sponges utilizing caster sugar, darkish brown sugar, blended spice, floor cinnamon, floor nutmeg. ❄️

I began by melting butter in a pan together with some double cream and the dry elements talked about above. As soon as blended collectively I took off the warmth and poured right into a clear bowl. Then I blended in self elevating flour and baking powder. Break up the combination between two spherical tins and baked within the oven for 20 minutes. 🍰

To make the candied walnuts, I roasted them within the oven for five minutes. Then blended right into a sugar syrup of golden caster sugar, pomegranate and water. As soon as they had been nicely coated I allow them to dry on a bit of baking paper. 🌰

Lastly the frosting was made out of full fats cream cheese, icing sugar and pomegranate molasses. Sandwich the sponges collectively and prime with extra frosting. Beautify the cake with the candied nuts and contemporary pomegranate seeds. 🧁
