1 cup of sugar
4 whole eggs
1 cup black coffee (room temperature)
¾ cup vegetable oil
1 fresh orange, grated fine
(juice, pulp and skin)
4 to 4½ cups of flour

2 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 pinch of salt (⅛ teaspoon)
1 cup of raisins

Blend and mix honey, sugar, eggs, coffee, oil and orange mixture. Sift dry ingredients and mix in slowly. Blend well. Add the raisins last and incorporate evenly. Pour the mixture into a 9 x 13 greased baking pan or a 36 hole muffin tin. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately one
