It’s my turn to bring cake to work tomorrow, I found this recipe .
I added some instant coffee but my jar slipped and I probably added too much… now I’m contemplating whether the buttercream might cover it up or whether I’m just baking a second cake and freezing this one for myself
edit:
Yeah, I definitely fucked up with the instant coffee haha
Still edible (especially with the buttercream, it’s still a 6/10 cake), but I don’t want to bring it to other people.
Made a new one instead, which this one I actually took the time to sift the baking powder and instant coffee so that it doesn’t stay in random bitter chunks
Haha, yeah, that’s what I ended up doing! It was edible, but pretty bitter so I kept it for myself and made a second one that looks much better![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/6f8b3df8-4c38-4956-84aa-3672fe371da4.jpeg)
