Espresso Glazed Awakening

Espresso Glazed Awakening is a delectable dessert that combines the rich flavor of espresso with a sweet glaze. This dish is perfect for coffee lovers who want to indulge in a decadent treat. To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

- For the cake:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour

- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup strong brewed espresso
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- For the glaze:

- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon strong brewed espresso
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch cake pan. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and mix until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream and espresso. Mix until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before glazing.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, espresso, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and let it set for a few minutes before serving.
