 To prepare cake: Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans. In large bowl,
 combine flour, 1 cup cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add
 1-1/2 cups honey, milk, oil, eggs and 2 tsp. vanilla; beat for 2 minutes.
 Gradually beat in water. Divide batter between pans. Bake at 350F for 25 to
 30 minutes, or until sides pull away slightly from pan and toothpick
 inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes. Turn onto wire
 racks and cool completely.

 powder, 1/2 cup honey, 1 tsp. vanilla and cream. Beat until just thick and
 fluffy. To assemble, spread frosting evenly over sides and top of one cake
 layer. Place second cake layer on top. Spread remaining frosting evenly
 over sides and top.
