Ingredients
  • 120 g all-purpose flour sieved
  • 150 g caster sugar
  • 15 g instant coffee granules
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 6.25 g baking powder
  • 2 g eggs large
  • 75 g unsalted butter
  • 120 ml full cream milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
Cream cheese frosting
  • 260 g icing sugar sifted
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
  • 170 g cream cheese softened
  • 14 g unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 tbsp milk optional
Topping
  • 100 g walnut roughly chopped
Baking tools
  • 8 inch square pan
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the hot coffee
  1. In a saucepan, heat butter, milk and coffee granules on medium-low heat. Stir till all the coffee granules have dissolved and all butter has melted.
Step 2: Prepare the cake batter
  1. In a mixing bowl, add in beaten eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla extract. Beat on speed 3 till sugar dissolves.
  2. Add in flour and baking powder.
  3. Pour a ½ portion of the hot coffee milk. Beat on medium speed to dissipate the heat. Once it has cooled down slightly, pour in the remaining hot coffee milk. Beat to mix evenly and batter thickens slightly.
Step 3: Prepare to bake
  1. Preheat the oven at 160oC for at least 10 mins.
  2. Line the square pan with parchment paper.
  3. Pour the mixture into the pan. Drop the pan gently to remove the excess air bubbles.
  4. Insert into the middle tray and bake for 30 minutes. To check whether it is fully baked, insert a toothpick in the middle of the cake. If the tooth pick comes out clean, it is baked through.
  5. Remove from the oven. Let it cool down on the wire rack.
Step 4: Prepare the cream cheese frosting and frost the cake
  1. Add cream cheese, butter and vanilla extract into the stand mixer bowl. Whisk the mixture evenly.
  2. Add in icing sugar gradually in quarters/portions. Beat till sugar is well incorporated.
  3. If you prefer a more fluid consistency, add in milk gradually and whisk evenly.
  4. Spoon cheese frosting onto the cake and sprinkle generous amount of chopped walnuts.
