METHOD
MUM Mixer.
1. Grease and line with parchment paper 2 x 20cm sandwich tins.
2. Beat the butter and sugar in the bowl of the MUM mixer with the stirrer attached. Beat until light and fluffy then begin to incorporate the beaten eggs a little at a time. If the mixture starts to curdle, add a tablespoon of the flour and keep on mixing.
3. Once all the eggs are added, sift in the flour and salt. Mix these in with the coffee and walnuts on the lowest speed.
4. Spread carefully into the cake tins and cook for 25-30 minutes until golden and a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
5. Remove the cakes from the oven and leave to cool for 5 minutes, before turning out onto wire racks to cool completely.
6. To make the icing. Beat the butter until soft. Add the icing sugar and coffee and beat until light.
7. Use half the icing to sandwich together the sponges. Then use the remaining icing to cover the top of the cake. Arrange the walnut halves on top.
Note: This cake can be baked using the Bosch Assist function (in the Series 8 ovens). It can also be baked using Hotair Eco. For correct shelf levels and more information please see your instruction manual.
