Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 9 x 11 in baking dish, line with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Place the softened Kerrygold Unsalted Butter, flour, superfine sugar, and coffee essence in a bowl. Break the eggs in and then beat everything together until smooth and well blended.
  3. Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish, leveling it smooth with the back of a spoon.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove the cake from the baking dish and leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
  5. For the icing, mix Kerrygold Unsalted Butter, powdered sugar and coffee essence together in a bowl until smooth and well blended.
  6. Spread the icing evenly over the top of the cake. Arrange the walnut pieces all over the top. Cut into wedges and serve.
