SUKKU KAPI COFFEE CAKE
This cake is so good that it reminds me of my childhood days. My mom use to prepare dry ginger coffee(sukku kapi in Tamil) with black jaggery or palm jaggery with ground coffee powder. The aroma use to fill in the entire house. The one thing I always love is this coffee. Now being away from home I truly miss all the whole experience of enjoying this particular cup of coffee, but I am not giving up. This time I have tried to bring in the flavours of sukku kapi in this cake. Every time I eat this cake it reminds of my home.
