Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure the butter is softened for easy mixing.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee Use strong brewed coffee for a richer flavor.
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce For drizzling before serving.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a cake pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in the brewed coffee and vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Baking

  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • For the caramel sauce, combine heavy cream and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
  • Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
  • Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the cake before serving.

Notes

This cake is wonderful on its own but can also be served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or topped with chopped nuts and whipped cream. Ensure to store it in an airtight container.
