Spiced date cake with mulled wine mascarpone cream
Cakes
A friend served a walnut date cake (Simple Southwest Cooking by Judy Walker) with tea one afternoon. The cake was perfectly simple the way it was, but to me, it cried out to be messed with. The inspiration for this version comes from Amanda’s Apician Spiced Dates in Mr. Latte. I poached the dates before chopping them and adding them to the batter, then used the poaching liquid in the mascarpone. The result is a sophisticated and yummy dessert. It’s not bad for breakfast either. (Extra bonus: It is gluten free for your non pie eaters.)
