Dear friends I made this coffee cake and iced it with coffee butter icing.
I used 300 grms soft butter, 300 grms sifited icing sugar,
little evaporated milk , 1 tbs dissolved instant coffee and little vanilla essence.
Mixed every thing nicely and did the design using a icing tube.
Sprinkled little white chocklate rice and the muli coloured sweet balls. Thanks Kugan98
