Delicious soft and tender cake with melted white chocolate in every bite, this white chocolate coffee cake is the perfect accompaniment to coffee, tea or as an afternoon snack.
For years I’ve tried to follow the “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” rule.
Yes, I have breakfast almost every day, but I would not consider it a deal breaker. It’s just something to get me going as I try to juggle way too many things.
Dinner is my favorite and the most important meal of the day if you ask me. It’s the time of the day when I can finally sit down, talk with my girl about our days without feeling rushed.
After dinner, I usually make myself a cup of coffee and enjoy a sweet treat. Sometimes a cookies, somethings a slice of pound cake but what I love the most is a piece of coffee cake! Don’t you just love coffee cake with your coffee?
Breakfast may not be a deal breaker around her, but coffee is! I’m sure many of you agree with me now. Without at least a cup of coffee I doubt half of our to-do list gets checked off. It’s the reality!
I have coffee in the morning, coffee in the afternoon and coffee after dinner. And enjoy a sweet treat with all 3 cups. My pants can prove that 🙂
Lately I have been nibbling on this white chocolate coffee cake.
I’ve made three versions of it, and this was by far my favorite.
It’s soft and tender and not too crumbly. Since I find myself sipping on a coffee and nibbling on a piece of cake while on the sofa I needed something that won’t crumble too much and make a mess. The crumble topping was out of the question.
The second time I used chocolate chips in the cake batter. But the cake bakes for almost an hour and the chips melted leaving these ugly yellowish-brown holes inside the cake. Good, but not pretty.
The third time I used baking white chocolate and grated it before mixing it into the cake batter. Yes, it still melted but it melted evenly into the cake that you could only taste its subtle flavor, without seeing any signs of it.
This white chocolate coffee cake gets an additional chocolate flavor from the International Delight white chocolate coffee creamer I used in the batter.
You know I love their creamers and have used them on the blog in so many recipes. I still love the seasonal flavors the best, when out of season, I try to have a new flavor every month. Keep things fresh!
What’s your favorite International Delight coffee creamer flavor?
