Coffee cake - the basic principles of cooking
Coffee for the cake is used both instant and natural. It is added to the dough or to the cream. The only condition - coffee should be only high quality.
Coffee cake can be made from any cake layers: biscuit, sand, puff, or you can make a simple dough on kefir. Add dry coffee to it, or pre-brew it.
As for cream, you can also experiment here. For layer use sour cream, oil, cream, or any other cream. If the cake without coffee, it is added to the cream.
The coffee cake is also prepared without baking. The basis for such a dessert can be a cookie, which is simply transferred to the coffee cream, or crushed into crumb, combined with soft butter and form a cake.
The cake will be fresh and light if you prepare it with fruit or berries. You can also use meringue to make the cake airy.
