My Scottish Twist on Election Cake by Christina's Cucina
Given our choices for president in 2016, I felt the need to update the 1911 recipe for Election Cake and the Election Day cake tradition. Whisky is involved! FULL RECIPE:

Hey everyone, welcome to my corner!
In honor of the successful inauguration of Joe Biden as president, and the senate elections in Georgia earlier this month, I thought I would try baking that election cake again! So, stay tuned to see if it worked.

Election Cake
Original recipe:
Two pounds Sugar,
Three quarters of a pound of butter,
One pint of milk made into a sponge,
four eggs,
Two tablespoonsful of cinnamon,
And flour enough to make a dough.
Set a sponge the evening before with a pint of milk, a gill of yeast, a little salt, and flour enough to make a thick batter. The next morning stir the butter and sugar together, whisk the eggs, and add to it with the sponge and other ingredients, and flour enough to form a dough. Knead it, butter your pan, put in the dough; let it rise. When it is light bake it.
My version, half recipe (in US measurements because I have a lot of work to do and don't have the energy to convert to metric, I'm sorry)
For the sponge:
1/2 cup natural yeast
1 cup milk
pinch of salt
1.5 cup flour
For the dough:
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 sticks butter (room temperature)
2 eggs
1tbsp cinnamon
2.5 cups flour
Pinch of salt
Mix the yeast, milk, salt, and 1.5 cup flour in a bowl and let sit for 6-8 hours to form a sponge.
When it has sponged, mix the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk the eggs and add them, cinnamon, salt, and yeast sponge to the bowl. Add in the 2.5 cups flour and knead to form the dough. Butter your baking pan, put in the dough, cover it, and leave it to rise until it is light. Bake in a 325F oven for 75 minutes.
History in the baking: What's your favourite cake? ???????????? | Australian Election 2022 | ABC Australia
Australian Election 2022 is fast approaching and just the thought of being stuck in the voting booth queue has us hungry! Thankfully we can all rely on the good old cake stalls to sweeten up our wait. So, what cake will you buy in your slice of Australia?
All states are a little different, some like AFL and some like NRL, some call it a pot and some call it a schooner, and some have a parmi and some have a parma. Do you think we could narrow it down to one iconic cake? Honestly, I'm not overly confident. So as a democratic society, let's have a vote and see if we can identify the cake of all cakes.
