Cake Recipe
Ingredients
2/3 cup cake flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups canned chickpeas
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cardamom
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon nutmeg ½ teaspoon orange flower water
½ teaspoon salt
Topping
2 cups orange preserves
1 cup powdered sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl cream sugar and eggs. Drain the liquid from chickpeas, rinse and pour into a food processor, pulverize the chickpeas, lemon juice, spices and oil. Add the chickpea mixture to the creamed mixture and mix well. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix well. Grease and lightly flour a 9"X13" baking sheet. Parchment paper and
pan liners can help prevent sheet cakes from sticking to the bottom of the pan instead of greasing the pan and
aid you in handling your cake during the transferring process. Bake 30-35 minutes. When the cake cools completely, evenly spread orange preserves on top of the cake and dust with powdered sugar.

chances of a hurricane are highest during these months. Hurricanes
are gigantic weather systems using convection, the movement of hot and cold
air, to create dangerous storms. They are rotating heat engines powered by the
warmth of tropical waters having three main parts, the eye, the eyewall, and
rainbands.
Hurricanes cannot form just anywhere in the world due to the need
for hot and humid air. They normally form close to the equator and move west or
northwest. Hurricane Alley is a stretch of warm water through the Atlantic
