Hey guys! A delicious easy sheet cake recipe for you today! A delicious coffee soaked vanilla sponge, topped with a silky mascarpone buttercream dusted in cocoa powder. All the flavours of a tiramisu in a soft fluffy cake.
I am obsessed with a sheet cake, they are just the perfect bake for everyone! Super quick and simple with no fancy techniques. This one is for you if you are a lover of cake and coffee. This is a perfect mix of two of my favourite desserts, cake and tiramisu.
No need to go fancy with the piping of the icing like I did, just simple use a spatula and spread it all on top! Dust that with cocoa powder and you are good to go, it will look amazing! If you are being extra fancy you could even top this with chocolate shavings, it would be delish!
