I decided to make a classic chocolate cake with coffee filling, my two favourite things (I have a lot of favourite things..) - so here is my chocolate and coffee layered cake.
This recipe makes 8-10 pieces.
INGREDIENTS:
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 125ml boiling water
- 125g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 200g caster sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1½ cup self-raising flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 100ml milk
- 250g mascarpone cheese
- 85g icing sugar
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee dissolved in 2 teaspoons hot water
METHOD:
- Preheat oven to 190˚C
- Sift cocoa powder into bowl and stir in boiling water to make a paste - set bowl aside to cool
- In a separate, large mixing bowl, beat butter until creamy
- Slowly add in sugar to butter mix until light and fluffy
- Gradually beat in eggs and vanilla essence
- Fold in sifted flour, baking soda and salt into butter mixture
- Mix in milk
- When thoroughly mixed, pour mixture into greased round cake tin (approx. 20cm diameter)
- Bake until skewer comes out clean
- Once cooked, tip cake out onto cooling rack and cut in half to cool
Coffee Filling Method:
- Beat the mascarpone with sifted icing sugar and coffee together until smooth and creamy
- Once cake has been cooled, evenly spread filling on base and pop the top of the cake back on top
- Voila! The cake is complete! Enjoy with a hot cup of coffee or tea for the perfect afternoon treat :)
