Directions
This is one of my favourite cake. It goes really well with a cup of coffee or tea. This is really deep luxorious coffee cake. And it never last long.
When the cake are cold, slice the cake horizontally in half, giving four layer cake. Sit one base on a cake stand and spread with a quarter of the mixture. Continue layering up with cake and icing so you finish with icing on top and swirl to give an attractive finish.
The cake can be made and iced up to two days ahead, keep covered in the fridge.
