A Dark and Creamy Cake Baked with Coffee, Caramel and Vanilla
A simply exquisite play of flavours! This decadent dessert cake has a creamy vanilla pudding filling that combines with the rich full-bodied flavours of coffee and the smooth sweetness of caramel. It really is an amazing taste sensation.
Effortless yet Rewarding
First, you start with baking the soft, spongy vanilla flavoured cake halves. Then you have the pleasure of mixing your sweet and spicy brandy, coffee, sugar and vanilla syrup, and pouring it over your cake halves. Lastly, you layer your caramel and vanilla pudding mix onto your cake and garnish with something totally indulgent like a flake. The result is simply mouth-watering, and all in less than an hour!
Caramel Coffee Cake for all Occasions
This recipe makes enough for 12 slices and is perfect to be served as a beautiful and decadent dessert. A great recipe to remember if you have guests. Best enjoyed fresh, although it should last for a couple of days if stored in an airtight container. So should there by chance be any leftovers you could save some to enjoy privately at a later point.
Either way, you won’t regret giving this easy and rewarding recipe a try.
Few things can compare to this divine dessert cake, but I’d say our Blue Gin Blueberry Cheesecake comes pretty close!
