Tea time and feeling like some cake? Here is coffee-walnut cake for you...
Ingredients
All purpose flour - 1 cup
Baking powder - 1 tsp
Sugar - 1/2 cup(make it 3/4 if you like your cake quite sweet)
Butter - 1/2 cup
Eggs - 2
Vanilla Essence - 1 tbsp
Instant coffee powder - 2 tbsp
Milk - 1/4 cup
Boiling water - 2 tbsp
Chopped Walnuts - 2 tbsp
Method
Preheat oven to 350 F
Grease and flour a cake pan (I used 9" round pan greased with a little butter and sprinkled with some flour)
Sift together the flour with baking powder.
Add coffee powder to the boiling water and make sure that it's fully incorporated.
Beat butter and sugar until they become fluffy.
Add the eggs one after another, and beat well.
Add vanilla essence and mix.
Add coffee-water mixture and mix.
Now add the flour and milk alternately, starting and ending with flour.
Add chopped walnuts.
Bake for 30 mins or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
(I am not much of a frosting person, and hence my cake looks plain. If you like it frosted, whipped cream-coffee flavored ones will go really well with this cake)
