Directions

Serving Size: 16 servings

  • Cake: Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Grease a 9" (23 cm) spring form pan.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together, in a medium bowl using an electric mixer, until light in texture. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy. In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture in 3 parts, alternating with the sour cream. Mix well after each addition, scraping the bowl as necessary.
  • Dissolve the coffee in the hot water. Remove 1/3 of the batter to another medium bowl and add the coffee mixture.
  • Combine the brown sugar, walnuts, and melted butter in a small bowl. Spread half of the remaining batter in the prepared pan. Cover with the coffee flavoured batter and then the brown sugar-walnut mixture. Top with the remaining batter.
  • Topping: Combine the sugar and walnuts and sprinkle over the batter in the pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 70 to 75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
