Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan. Line and butter two 18cm sandwich tins. Add the sugar and butter to a bowl and whisk until very fluffy and pale.
- Whisk the eggs in a mug with a fork, then add them gradually to the mixture with 1 tbsp of flour each time. (Make sure you don't use all the flour.) When the eggs have been fully combined into the mix, add the rest of the flour and fold it in gently.
- Add the dissolved coffee to the mixture, still folding. Divide into the sandwich tins and cook for 25-30 min until risen and firm and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Can be frozen at this stage.
- Meanwhile, make the icing by beating the icing sugar with the butter until light and fluffy, then add the dissolved coffee. Whisk, then cover and set aside until ready to ice the cake.
- Spread half the icing on the bottom of one sponge and spread the strawberry jam on the bottom of the other, if using. Sandwich together, then spread the remaining icing on top. Decorate with walnuts or cherries, if you like.

Steps:
- For the coffee: I just use a bit of instant and brew it about double or triple strength.
- For best results, pre-measure the ingredients. You can pour the vanilla in with the coffee.
- Place the vegan butter sub in a med-large mixing bowl; set hand mixer on low speed and beat till 'fluffy' (whippy is more like the right word here).
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. You can also begin to add dribbles of coffee as needed to moisten.
- Continue until it has reached your desired consistency; should be light and fluffy. Frost your cupcakes/cake/biscuits and enjoy!

- *Dependingon the weather, the frosting's consistency, and personal preference, you may need to add more coffee and/or powdered sugar to reach desired spreading consistency and flavor.
- *.
Tips:
- Soften butter thoroughly: This will help the frosting become smooth and creamy, and prevent it from curdling.
- Use high-quality coffee: The better the coffee, the better the frosting will taste. If you can, use freshly ground coffee beans.
- Don't overbeat the frosting: Overbeating can cause the frosting to become grainy and stiff.
- Chill the frosting before using it: This will help it firm up and make it easier to spread.
- Use the frosting within a few days: Coffee butter frosting is best when fresh. If you need to store it for longer, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Coffee butter frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used on a variety of desserts, including cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you're a coffee lover or not, you're sure to enjoy this frosting.
