7::20 ~ sour cream coffee cake

OCCASSION: I felt like cake.

BRIEF & RATIONALE: While grocery shopping, I spied organic sour cream from my favourite dairy. And thought why the heck not?

SOURCE: Baking Essentials.

EASE OF MAKING: 6/10.

CHILD FRIENDLY? The recipe uses instant coffee (one teaspoon in the whole cake), so personal preference. Not child friendly in the making – creaming and folding gently does not make for a toddler suitable recipe!

REALITY V COOKBOOK: 4/10 – colour and texture was good, but it sank in the middle for some reason.

TASTE: 9.5/10.

FINAL VERDICT: I love this one, but it’s a bit labour intensive. It has a more caramel taste rather than coffee/sour cream.
