Cappuccino cake

in #food6 years ago (edited)

Dear fellow Steemiteers
I made a cappuccino cake over the weekend
It was rather tastey with its sweet,sticky, white chocky topping and although it had coffee in it, the coffee flavour i found was quite mild.

Leave the cake to cool in the tin for 10 minutes ,then turn out to cool completely on a wire rack.

For the topping, melt the white chocolate,milk and butter together over a pan of boiling water.just enough for the chocolate to melt.

Leave to cool and mix in the icing sugar. Put the topping over the cake and cut into slices.

I think i should of cooled my chocolate more before adding the icing sugar,was very runny but very tasty i didn't complain one bit!!

Looks so yummy, I'm not a big fan of coffee but i think that would be put aside for this!

Honestly the coffee flavour to me is not really there but it may depend on what type of coffee is used,definately try it you may be pleasantly suprised,and converted haha

Maybe yeah will do, great post

Wahooo the recipe!!!
