Ingredients
For the Coffee Cake
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- 1 1/2 sticks butter, sliced into chunks
- 2 large eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 2 tsp. instant coffee
- 2/3 cup Starbucks Frappuccino Mocha Chilled Coffee Drink
- 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- Hot fudge, for serving
For the Streusel
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
- 2 sticks butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
- Step 1Preheat the oven to 325°. Butter 2 mini loaf pans.*
- Step 2Make batter: In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Beat in butter, one piece at a time, until pea-sized crumbles form. Add the eggs and yolks, vanilla, instant coffee and Frappuccino drink. Beat until smooth, about 2 minutes more.
- Step 3Make swirl: Add 1/3 of batter into a small bowl. Stir in cocoa powder until fully incorporated.
- Step 4Pour half of the coffee-flavored batter into loaf pans, top with cocoa batter, then pour remaining coffee batter on top, spreading it in an even layer. Use the end of a wooden spoon or a butter knife to swirl the batters together, creating a slightly marbleized effect. Set aside.
- Step 5Make the streusel: In a large bowl, combine sugars, cinnamon, salt, butter and flour. Once combined, mix with your hands until crumbles form. Top batter with streusel.
- Step 6Bake until golden, 50 minutes. Let cool completely, then drizzle with hot fudge, if desired.
