| Mocha Coffee Cake with Espresso Glaze |
Mocha Coffee Cake with Espresso Glaze was baked for my younger ones birthday, I wanted to order a cake for her.
Hubby and she were adamant that I should make the cake not order it.
That is when I, “#FireUpYourOven” (d) to bake 3 cakes.
One was a Date and Walnut Cake, A Pound Cake that I covered with ganache the third one was this delicious cake that was appreciated a lot.
In fact, one of my friend’s daughter asked me for a full cake for her.
