№ 01
Coffee Cake
The cake worth keeping leftover coffee for.
Coffee cake is what you make when there’s leftover coffee in the pot. On a Saturday morning. On a slow afternoon. It doesn’t ask for rare ingredients — just butter, sugar, eggs, flour, cocoa powder. The thing that makes this cake different from any other chocolate cake is the glaze. Skip the glaze and you skip half of what this cake is.
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs (separate yolks and whites)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 cups strong brewed coffee, cooled
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee
[Full method, glaze instructions, finishing technique, yield, time, and house tip continue on the next page of the book.]
Made the way good cookbooks used to be.
Every recipe in this book has been tested in our editorial kitchen. The ingredients are what’s already in your house — flour, sugar, eggs, butter. The instructions are written like we’re standing in the kitchen with you. No chef-talk. No mystery.
The writing is plain. The format is honest. The point is the cake — and the Saturday afternoon you spend making it.
