Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
- Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for 4 to 5 minutes, until light. Add the eggs 1 at a time, then add the vanilla and sour cream. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture to the batter until just combined. Finish stirring with a spatula to be sure the batter is completely mixed.
- For the streusel, place the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and butter in a bowl and pinch together with your fingers until it forms a crumble. Mix in the walnuts, if desired.
- Spoon half the batter into the pan and spread it out with a knife. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup streusel. Spoon the rest of the batter in the pan, spread it out, and scatter the remaining streusel on top. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Let cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes. Carefully transfer the cake, streusel side up, onto a serving plate. Whisk the confectioners' sugar and maple syrup together, adding a few drops of water if necessary, to make the glaze runny. Drizzle as much as you like over the cake with a fork or spoon.

COFFEE ALMOND ICE-CREAM CAKE WITH DARK CHOCOLATE SAUCE
Categories Cake Milk/Cream Chocolate Dessert Kid-Friendly Almond Amaretto Gourmet Small Plates
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- To make the cake:
- In a bowl with a fork stir together the crumbs and the butter until the mixture is combined well, pat the mixture onto the bottom and 1 inch up the side of a lightly oiled 8-inch springform pan, 2 1/2 inches deep, and freeze the crust for 30 minutes, or until it is firm. Spread the ice cream evenly on the crust and return the pan to the freeze for 30 minutes, or until the ice cream is firm. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream with the vanilla until it holds stiff peaks, fold in the amaretti thoroughly, and spread the mixture over the ice cream. Smooth the top of the cake, sprinkle it with the almonds, and freeze the cake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the top is firm. Freeze the cake, covered with plastic wrap and foil, for at least 4 hours or overnight. Just before serving, wrap a warm dampened kitchen towel around the side of the pan, remove the side, and transfer the cake to a serving plate. Cut the cake into wedges with a knife dipped in hot water and serve it with the chocolate sauce.
- To make the sauce:
- In a small heavy saucepan combine the cream and the brown sugar, bring the mixture to a boil over moderately high heat, whisking occasionally, and boil it, whisking, until the brown sugar is dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolates, whisking until they are melted. Whisk in the butter and the Amaretto, whisking until the sauce is smooth, and let the sauce cool slightly. The chocolate sauce may be made 1 week in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the chocolate sauce over very low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm.
Tips:
- Choose the right coffee: For the best flavor, use a medium-roast coffee with a smooth, balanced flavor.
- Use fresh, cold water: Using old or lukewarm water will result in a weaker, less flavorful cup of coffee.
- Don't over-extract: Over-extracted coffee will be bitter and harsh. Brew your coffee for the recommended amount of time, typically 2-3 minutes.
- Use the right ratio of coffee to water: A good starting point is 1 tablespoon of ground coffee for every 6 ounces of water. Adjust to taste.
- Heat the milk properly: Don't let the milk boil, as this will change its flavor. Heat it until it is just below simmering, or about 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Froth the milk correctly: If you're using a milk frother, hold the wand just below the surface of the milk and move it up and down until the milk is frothy and doubled in volume.
- Add the cream to taste: Start with a small amount of cream and add more to taste. You can also use half-and-half or milk instead of cream.
Conclusion:
Coffee with cream is a classic and delicious drink that can be enjoyed at any time of day. By following these tips, you can make the perfect cup of coffee with cream at home. Experiment with different types of coffee, cream, and flavorings to find your favorite combination. Enjoy!
