How To Make coffee lovers delight cake - cassie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Spray a 8.5 inch loaf pan with non stick cooking spray. Or grease and flour. Set aside. Dissolve coffee into the milk. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a medium sized mixing bowl; sift the sugar, flour, salt and baking powder.
