The first time
Wow
It was amazing with a brilliant flare of strong coffe - I used mocha
Halved the recipe as I was covering an Incredibly Moist Coffee-Walnut Snack Cake! The recipe for the topping for this had cream cheese in it! Don’t do cream cheese! Topped my cake with the buttercream then nibbles of Walnut on top of that! Tasted amazing!
So easy to make although I added some cream to loosen a bit more for covering a cake . Tasted amazing
It was awsome and easy to make. I had to add some milk.
