Making of Coffee Sponge Cake Pudding

As much as this dessert is pure bliss to your senses, it is also effortless to make, which makes it even more amazing. Imagine having to use too many utensils to make something that takes forever and then lies the mammoth task of washing and cleaning. Just the mere idea of it is enough to exhaust one. But to make this dessert, you don’t need much time and utensils of course!

You can start by making the coffee-flavored sponge cake base. Combine your favorite ground coffee with butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, and mix until smooth. Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Once cooled, you can cut into small cubes and set aside. Next, to prepare the pudding you can whisk together instant pudding mix with cold milk and refrigerate for 15 minutes or until it gets thickened. Finally, it’s time to layer the sponge cake cubes in a dish and pour the chilled pudding mixture. You can eat it right after or you can hold your craving and refrigerate it for at least an hour or so to allow the flavors to blend together.

To make it finger-licking good, top off this decadent dessert with whipped cream or your favorite ice cream, and bingo! Enjoy the bold and creamy pudding – Coffee Sponge Cake pudding.
