Sounds like you need a dessert or snack of some kind. I found several at a site called www.spain-recipes.com including this one. You can substitute other things for the brandy or rum.
Bizcochos Borrachos - Drunken Sponge Cakes
Light spongy cake, drizzled with a sweet sauce of brandy, lemon and cinnamon. It is a wonderful light dessert to complete a Spanish dinner. These "bizcochos" are the perfect accompaniment to a hot cup of Spanish coffee or hot chocolate on a cold morning or for afternoon tea.

Ingredients
4 Eggs
1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
3/4 cup Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon for Decoration
For Sauce:
1/3 cup granulated Sugar
8 oz. Water
1.5 Tbsp Honey
1 1/2 oz. Brandy or Rum
1 Cinnamon Stick
Peel from 1/2 Lemon
Preparation
Makes 1 8-inch cake or 9 small servings.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Centigrade. Generously grease a 8-inch square cake pan with vegetable shortening, then flour it.

Separate the yolks from the egg whites.

Then, beat the egg yolks in a bowl with the sugar until it forms a creamy mixture.

In another mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until they are stiff enough to form a point. Fold in the yolk mixture with a spatula, smoothly and carefully.

Fold in the baking powder and flour gradually, a bit at a time.

Pour in the batter and bake for 20 minutes, or until it turns golden. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it is clean when pulled out, cake is done.

While the cake is baking, make the syrup. In a small sauce pan, pour water and sugar, cinnamon, honey and lemon peel. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Allow to boil 1 minute. Remove from heat and add the brandy and allow the syrup to cool.

After the cake has cooled, carefully cut into 9 pieces and place them on a serving plate. Drizzle the pieces of cake with the brandy sauce and then dust the top with cinnamon. Serve with coffee or tea.
