Dominosteine

Dominosteine

1 c. honey
1/3 c. sugar
½ stick oleo or butter
2 eggs
1/8 tsp. lemon extract
1 tip of a knife cardamom, ground
1 tip of a knife cloves, ground
1 tsp cinnamon, ground
1 ¾ cup flour, sifted
2 T. cocoa (15 grams)
3 tsp. baking powder (level)
Currant or Raspberry jam
Semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted

Heat the honey (do not boil), add sugar, butter, and then cool. When cold, add the spices,
the eggs one at a time, and then add the flour, baking powder, and cocoa. Put dough on a
buttered jelly roll pan and spread *evenly.* Bake at medium oven (325-350 F) for about
25 min. When cake is cold, cut into 1 inch pieces (2 ½ x 2 ½ cm). Each cube is cut in
half, and filled with jelly, also all the sides, except the underside, then dipped in chocolate.
Keeps a long time in tins or in the freezer.

Notes: I remember Mom making these at Christmastime. They require a lot of labor,
but are very tasty! You can sometimes buy these at international grocery stores around
the holidays. I typed this up from a recipe that Mom wrote out by hand and gave to Mrs.
Deimling.
