Category: Cakes

For the Cake:
2/3 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup Bailey's Irish Cream
1/8 cup milk
1/3 cup Guittard Cappuccino Chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 8-inch pan with non-stick spray and set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, followed by vanilla extract. Mix in half of the flour mixture, followed by the Irish cream and milk. Then mix the cappuccino chips into the remaining flour mixture and mix until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake for approximately 24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack until completely cool. Turn out cooled cake onto a platter and pour glaze over cake.

For the Glaze:
2 Tbsp. butter, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 Tbsp. Bailey's Irish Cream
1 tsp. milk or half-n-half, or more if needed
1/4 cup Guittard Cappuccino Chips (optional)

Add all the ingredients in a small bowl except the cappuccino chips and mix until smooth and pourable. Add more milk a half teaspoon at a time if needed. Top the cake with Cappuccino chips before the glaze sets up.
