Coffee liqueur cake

well...it has been a long long time i wrote somethin here.thats because i was bogged down with the thought that i would not put anything sweet up here.but then turns out i stopped cooking altogether...so salty things will have their share sometime later....cuz "i are baking!"

anyways last time my frens had come over i made death by chocolate...that required me to make some coffe liquor.a lot of that had reamined over so i thought i will use it for the new cake i would bake today.

today i am not putting up the ingredients...will move straight to the receipe.so i took frozen butter sugar and one egg and beat them together.i read somewhere that the key to making soft cakes was to have solid butter bits.thats why i used frozen butter...no amount of beating will make it completely smooth.anyways to this pasty thing i added flour, baking powder and soda bicarb (i dunno why they use soda bicarb...but there is one cook show in which the lady who cooks puts soda bicarb in all the baked products she makes...so i thought i would give it a go too)...then over this i put lots and lots of coffee liquor.probably enough to get me drunk if i was to have it neat.anyways it was enough to make the batter into cake like consistency.i put the batter in a greased baking dish (yes its still the square one....we have not actually got down to buying a new one) and baked it in a preheated oven...180 degree celcius for 22 minutes...and this is the result...



the white thing on top is powdred sugar....icing sugar if u must...that i used to visual effects.

i was about to eat it i was like whats a cake without some amount of chocolate in it...so out came my hershey's syrup and well here's the final product...
