Create a little buzz with your baking: The Balzac's Mocha Crumble Coffee Cake
Ingredients:
Coffee Cake:
- 1 stick butter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup granulated syfar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
Crumble:
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon Balzac's coffee grounds, fine
- 2 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Glaze:
- 1 cup powder sugar
- 1/2 cup Balzac's Las Rosas Coffee Blend
- 2 tsp fine coffee grounds
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- To a mixer combine cream, sugar, and butter.
- One by one, add in eggs and vanilla until well mixed.
- Slowly add sour cream, flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder, a little at a time, until well- combined.
- To make the crumble, add all ingredients into a bowl and cut in the butter with a fork until crumbly and combined.
- Scoop enough batter into a well-greased 9x9-inch baking dish to cover the bottom.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of the crumble on top.
- Top with the rest of the batter and smooth over evenly. The batter will be sticky, so spreading over the crumble may take some time. (We promise it will be worth it).
- Top with another generous layer of the crumble.
- Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until a fork comes out mostly clean.
- While baking, add your powdered sugar to a bowl and, at ½ a tsp at a time, add coffee until the glaze is your desired consistency to drizzle. Add in coffee grounds and mix.
- Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the glaze and pair it with your favourite cup of Balzac’s coffee.
- Give yourself a high-five. This cake will have everyone talking.
