Stinging nettle cake

Stinging Nettle Cake is a funny and super tasty way of using stinging nettles. The cake is sweet and moist and tastes amazing.

First I'll talk about how to make these, and then if you want to stick around and read about Stinging Nettles (Urtica dioica) there will be information after the recipe. This was my second attempt. A year or more ago I tried and it wasn't terribly successful. After thinking for a long time about it, the method came together in my head. Today the nettles called.
