Frangelico Hazelnut Raspberry Cake

It doesn’t take much to take a simple coffee cake from plain to fancy. Add some fresh raspberries, ground hazelnuts and a generous shot of Frangelico, a sweet hazelnut liquor, to transfer a simple one-bowl coffee cake into a glorious afternoon treat.

Frangelico is my secret ingredient in this recipe! If you want it to be even fancier, you could drizzle some melted dark chocolate on top. You could also add a shot of Frangelico to the melted chocolate before drizzling, that would make it over the top fancy! Luckily I had to try all versions for testing purposes ;)

Notes

I've used US cups to measure the ingredients.

This cake tastes also delicious with dark chocolate drizzled on top.

Raspberries and hazelnuts are a fantastic combination of flavors! This Frangelico cake is not only very simple to make but also very light and perfect for summer. It is made with a cup of yoghurt and only half a cup vegetable oil.
