| 1. Preset oven to 190C (375F). | 2. Grease two 18cm (7 inch) sponge tins. | 3. In a small mixing bowl, and using electric beaters, cream margarine, sugar and treacle. | 4. Add eggs and mix until combined. | 5. Into a separate bowl sieve flour, cocoa, baking powder and coffee. | 6. Add dry ingredients, a bit at a time, to margarine/treacle mixture alternating with the milk and beating after each addition. | 7. Beat until combined. | 8. Divide mixture evenly between sponge tins and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 20 minutes. | 9. When cooked, remove from oven and turn carefully onto racks to cool. | 10. Meanwhile, make the topping/filling: Add a small amount of boiling water to a small saucepan and set over a very low heat. | 11. Place all topping/filling ingredients into a heatproof glass bowl and set the bowl over the the saucepan (or use a double boiler). | 12. With electric beaters, cream the ingredients (this won't take very long). | 13. Cover and place topping/filling into the refrigerator until cake is completely cool. | 14. Remember the topping is not supposed to be sweet- don't judge the taste until you've tried it on the cake. | 15. When the cake and topping/filling are both cool, sandwich the two sponges together with the filling then use the other half to ice the top. | 16. Tip: Run a spatula under some hot water, dry, then use immediately to smooth the topping. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
