Ingredients
  

For the Cake Base
  • 125 g Softened Butter At room temperature for easy creaming
  • 150 g Light Brown Sugar Can substitute with white sugar for a lighter flavor
  • 3 large Eggs Use room temperature for the best texture
  • 200 g Self-Raising Flour Opt for gluten-free if necessary

  • 2 tablespoons Instant Coffee Granules Decaf options available
  • 50 g Chopped Walnuts Optional
For the Icing
  • 250 g Icing Sugar Sift before use to avoid lumps

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C for fan ovens) or 350°F. Grease a 9x9-inch traybake tin and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and light brown sugar. Beat until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated before adding the next.
  4. Sift in the self-raising flour and baking powder to the batter and gently fold using a spatula.
  5. Dissolve the instant coffee granules in hot water, then pour into the batter. Fold gently to combine.
  6. Pour the batter into the lined tin and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool completely in the tin.
  8. Beat together the softened butter and icing sugar until light and creamy. Add dissolved coffee and milk as needed for consistency.
  9. Spread the icing over the cooled traybake and garnish with walnut halves or cocoa powder if desired.
