Ingredients
  

  • Buttercream frosting
  • Caramel sauce
  • Coffee-infused cake

Method
 

  1. Beat the buttercream frosting for 5 minutes until light and fluffy. If too thick, add a bit of heavy cream to adjust consistency.
  2. Place one layer of the cooled coffee-infused cake on a serving plate or cake stand. Spread an even layer of buttercream frosting on top.
  3. Repeat the process with the second layer, adding more frosting on top. Place the third cake layer on top and frost the entire cake — top and sides — with the remaining buttercream.
  4. Drizzle the cooled caramel sauce generously over the top of the frosted cake, letting it drip beautifully down the sides.
  5. Slice, serve, and enjoy this indulgent caramel coffee creation!

Notes

For an extra flavor boost, add a hint of espresso powder to the buttercream or drizzle with salted caramel for contrast. This cake pairs perfectly with a hot cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk.
