and had to go and get another one, it wasworth it right, it was definitely worth adding the extra egg. next up is your sieve stage, you sieve inthe self raising flour and baking powder it is going to give it a nice rise, you eatingthe cake too now, i am delicious, with that in there you just want to keep folding untilfully merged, make sure you get right down to the bowl folding with a spatula, fold allthat flour in, we are still doing it like that, as we are talking retrospectively, iremember like it was yesterday, in fact it was yesterday. ok so to infuse our cake with coffee flavourlove that word infuse, in a small ramekin
we had some espresso powder and mixed thatwith some boiling water until it formed and poured that into the mixture and again foldedit in, yeah definitely i thought it looked like mud when first mixing it through butit is more like chocolate after a while, it is a good look, but do not be tempted to trythat espresso as it is off camera i did not catch this but she was like urgh do not dothat. divide that mixture evenly into two linedsandwich tins and bake in the oven for mrs b about 25 minutes oh yes the temperatureshould be on the screen right now once they have done that leave on a wire rack to fullycool down, meanwhile you can make your coffee infused buttercream which is delicious, verygood, it is your turn now.
my turn, oh ok, get your room temperaturebutter in a bowl and beat together with a spoon and then you add in your icing sugar,i did it 3 or 4 tablespoons at a time, just to stop that big splash, we have learnt thatthe hard way and you guys have helped with that, yeah an icing sugar explosion add inthe tablespoons of icing sugar mix it together and then keep going until it is all used upand well combined with the butter, to drive some coffee flavour into the buttercream wedissolved some espresso with water and chucked that in too mixing it through too until youhad a light infused buttercream, i just want to spread everywhere, yeah the colour lookedamazing, like a face pack, with the cakes cooled from the wire rack add on the buttercreamicing, get the base sponge, layer that buttercream
icing all over, smooth it all around niceand even and then plonk another on top, right mrs b yes and then you want to plonk a bitmore buttercream gently though spread it all evenly on the top of the cake, then we addedsome lovely delicious chopped hazelnuts no we added bashed walnuts but that is fine othernuts are available we did not use hazelnuts they were walnuts, oh yeah, does not matterhazelnuts would be fine like a nutella vibe, may have to try that, in fact try that doit for mrs b but i hope you agree we take a slice out of it, we have nearly finishedthe cake, during this video, absolutely gorgeous, it is go perfect with a cup of coffee, orcup of tea, i was wondering what you were going to say then, like go perfect, wouldyou eat coffee cake with a cup of tea?
