Total Time 1 hours 15 minutes

Prep Time 45 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield Cuts into 10 slices

Number Of Ingredients 11

250g pack softened butter, plus extra for the tins
100ml strong black coffee (made with 2 tbsp coffee granules), cooled
280g self-raising flour
250g golden caster sugar
½ tsp baking powder
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
85g walnut, 2 tbsp roughly chopped, the rest finely chopped
100g icing sugar, sifted, plus a little extra for dusting
150ml double cream
100g mascarpone, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter 2 x 20cm springform cake tins and line with baking parchment. Set aside 2 tbsp of the coffee for the filling.
