Description

This decadent Egg Cake is a comforting dessert that combines the deep aroma of espresso and cocoa with warm cinnamon notes. The batter is incredibly moist, thanks to the blend of butter, milk, and eggs, while the topping of brown sugar, granulated sugar, and nondairy creamer creates a delightful, crumbly crust as it bakes. Chopped walnuts add a satisfying crunch to every bite. Its the perfect treat for afternoon tea or a cozy family dinner. Simple to mix up with pantry staples, this cake delivers big flavor without complicated techniques. Serve it warm for the best experience, perhaps with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the instant espresso powder, cocoa powder, nondairy creamer, 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, packed brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the milk and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  7. Fold in the chopped walnuts and the reserved coffee-cocoa-sugar mixture into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
