Step By Step Guide
Combine Wet Ingredients
First, take a bowl and whisk the sugar, milk and butter until they turn fluffy. Mix in vanilla, dissolved espresso and eggs together.
Mix Dry Ingredients
Now take a separate bowl and mix baking powder and flour.
Dry And Wet Ingredients
Combine both dry and wet ingredients together and whisk well to form a smooth and lump-free batter.
Preheat The Oven And Bake
In the next stage, take an 8-inch round cake pan and grease it with unsalted butter. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Now pour the batter into an 8-inch round cake pan. Carefully place the pan in the oven and bake the cake for about 25–30 minutes. Then set it aside and let it cool.
Make The Cream Frosting And Layer The Cake
Once you have completed the above steps, deep freeze a small bowl, then whip the heavy cream in that chilled bowl together with powdered sugar and dissolved espresso. Whip completely until smooth. Then carefully divide the cake into two equal layers. Now spread the frosting on the top of the cake and also in between layers.
Garnish And Serve
Your creamy latte cake is now ready to serve. Dust the cake with cinnamon or cocoa powder and serve to your loved ones. Enjoy!
