Coffee and vanilla mini sponge cakes.

Found on mojewypieki.com, when browsing for some ideas. Masterchef The Professionals started on Tuesday, something nice and sweet with a cuppa while watching it makes it a lot better.

These are really easy. 150 g of butter creamed with 120 g of sugar, 2 eggs added one by one, 150 g of flour, 1,5 tsp of baking powder. Some vanilla extract. 2 tbsps of milk.  The whole mixture divided in half, one went onto the bottom of the muffin cases, the other got mixed with 2 tbsps of coffee ( previously diluted with hot water).  I think next time I’d use maybe a double espresso or something better, this Nescafe crap simply has nothing to do with coffee.  Such a lovely idea, but for me it needs better coffee.

The brown layer went on top of the vanilla one and baked for 25 minutes in 170 degrees.  Topped with whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa. Good looking and pleasant.
