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:
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil and bottom-line a 20cm round (6cm deep) loose-bottom tin. For the cake, mix the coffee with 2 tsp warm water and set aside. Tip the flour into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the baking powder, ground almonds, both sugars (use fingers to rub out any lumps from the muscovado) and walnuts, then make a dip in the centre. Put the eggs, yogurt, oil and coffee mix into the dip and stir the mixture with a wooden spoon so everything is evenly mixed. Spoon the mixture into the tin, smooth the top to level it, then bake for 40-45 mins, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the tin briefly, then turn it out and peel off the lining paper. Leave to cool completely while you make the filling and icing.
- Make the syrup for the filling: put the caster sugar and coffee into a small, heavy-based saucepan, then pour in 3 tbsp water. Heat gently, stirring to help the sugar dissolve. Once dissolved, raise the heat, then boil at a fast rolling boil for about 2½-3 mins until thickened and syrupy. Pour into a small heatproof bowl and set aside to cool. When cold it should be the consistency of treacle.
- Meanwhile, finish off the filling and make the icing. Beat the mascarpone, quark, icing sugar and vanilla together until smooth, then stir in the cold coffee syrup. Set aside. For the icing, sift the fondant icing sugar into a bowl. Mix the coffee with 1 tbsp warm water, stir this into the fondant icing sugar with about 1 more tsp water to give a smooth, thick but spreadable icing. Split the cake into 3, then sandwich back together with the filling. Spread the icing over the top, scatter over the chopped walnuts and leave to set. Store in the fridge.

Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
- Cinnamon Coffee Cake II. This easy cake uses a package of yellow cake mix and two packages of instant pudding mix and can be made in 9x13 inch baking pan, or a 10-inch Bundt cake pan.
- Amazing Pecan Coffee Cake. Scented with cinnamon and rich with butter, eggs, and sour cream, this pecan streusel-topped cake is a hit. The cake is baked in a 9x13 inch pan, but several recipe reviewers suggest making it in a bundt pan instead and baking it for 50 minutes instead of 35 minutes.
- Berry Good Coffee Cake. Raspberries and almonds add flair to this coffee cake drizzled with a powdered sugar based glaze. Reduced fat yogurt and only two tablespoons of butter make this cake significantly lower in fat and calories than most other coffee cakes.
- Easy Streusel Coffee Cake. Packaged yellow cake mix and instant vanilla pudding mix are the basis of this "dump" style cake where all the ingredients are mixed in one bowl.
- Cranberry Swirl Coffee Cake. A great cake for Thanksgiving weekend, it uses a can of cranberry sauce for a sweet swirl. Recipe creator Laura Owen says plain yogurt can be substituted for sour cream and you could certainly use leftover cranberry sauce if you have it.
- Graham Streusel Coffee Cake. Graham crackers are the basis for the crumbly streusel which is added to middle of the cake as well as on the top.
- Polish Cream Cheese Coffee Cake. This Polish version of coffee cake has three layers: a tender sour cream cake on the bottom, a rich sweetened cream cheese filling, and a topping with crumbly streusel topping made with flour, brown sugar and butter.
- Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Coffee Cake. For this easy-to-make and easily adaptable cake, recipe creator Ruth says you can swap fat-free sour cream or yogurt for the sour cream.
- Texas Praline Coffee Cake. If you're out of flour you can still make a coffee cake using a baking mix like Bisquick. This recipe has plenty of pecans, graham cracker streusel and is flavored with instant coffee.
- Almond Rhubarb Coffee Cake. Ruby-red rhubarb adds color and a contrasting tangy flavor to this vanilla scented coffee cake. Note that this recipe makes two cakes so you can keep one and give another away or freeze it for later.
