Coffee Infused Sponge Cake and Art!
I love and cake and coffee so why not combine the two? so I made a simple sponge cake and added a cup of coffee to the batter, it stuck a little to the bottom maybe too much coffee but it infused a wonderful coffee flavor and was oh so moist.
Ingredients:
- 1/2-1 cup of your favorite coffee
- 4 oz of self raising flour
- 2 eggs
- 4 oz of sugar
- 4 oz of butter
- caster sugar for dusting
Method:
- cream the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy
- then add the eggs and coffee and slowly fold in the flour
- bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes
We went to a restaurant downtown today then visited a local art gallery little Jasmine enjoyed the cat and looking at all the paintings you may be surprised galleries are actually pretty interesting for toddlers :-)
Have a wonderful weekend everyone

ReplyDeleteThe cake does look super fluffy and moist. It's probably great with a cup of coffee as well. If you're not coffee'd out by then. :)
ReplyDeleteOh Rebecca, this cake is really well done and looks absolutely scrumptious! Wish I can have a slice too. Nice to see bake! Hope to see more. =o) Enjoy your day!

ReplyDeleteI always encourage art and youngsters, even reading groups at the library then walk around and look at the art with them!
