Amaretto cake with coffee cream that’s soft, moist, and full of warm almond and coffee flavor. It comes together easily and works perfectly as a cozy dessert or something sweet with coffee.
Nut cake with coffee cream is a delicious, flourless cake with a deep, rich flavor. The combination of amaretto and coffee cream is one of my favorites, and here it’s wrapped into a lighter version you can enjoy without feeling heavy.
How to choose the best ingredients for Amaretto Cake Coffee Cream (no flour)
Eggs: we choose large, fresh eggs because they will be better tampered with.
Honey: we choose natural, best-quality honey. The taste doesn't matter. If you want, you can replace it with a natural sweetener without calories like stevia or erythritol. Then you will reduce the caloric content of the dough.
Melted butter: we choose natural butter without any additives, unsalted.
Ground walnuts: ground walnuts, you can grind them in a blender, it probably does not grind to the idea, but it does not interfere with the dough as there are pieces of walnuts.
Ground almonds: I have not experimented with almonds to grind them in my blender. However, you can try it in the coffee grinder as you have it or just buy ground almonds.
Top Tip
If you're going to make this recipe, make sure to follow this top tip!
• If the cake feels too soft in the center, give it a few extra minutes in the oven — it usually fixes itself and sets nicely.
• If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
• Let the cake cool completely before slicing — it firms up as it cools and cuts much better.
• Use room temperature eggs — they mix more easily and help create a smoother batter.
• If you like a stronger flavor, you can add a little more amaretto or a touch of almond extract.
• You can prepare the cake a day ahead — the flavor actually gets better after resting.
• Store it in the fridge, especially because of the coffee cream — just bring it to room temperature before serving.

Amaretto Cake Coffee Cream (no flour)
Ingredients
Method
- Beat the eggs to a fluffy mass.
- Add honey to the beaten eggs and make a fluffy mass again.
- Add lukewarm melted butter to the mass.
- Add ground walnuts, ground almonds, and baking soda.
- We mix everything up thoroughly.
- These ingredients require a 20 cm / 8 inch round baking tray.
- Bake at 180 degrees C / 356 degrees F for about 35 minutes. *It is one of those cakes that, even if we bake too shortly, we can put them back in the oven and bake them if it falls down gently.
- When the dough gets cold, we start making the whipping cream frosting.
- Pour heavy cream, mascarpone cheese, instant coffee, and powder sugar into the bowl. Cream and mascarpone cheese are supposed to be cold then. They are better to whip.
- We mix everything at the highest speed until the mass is compacted. When whipping, care should be taken so that the mass does not boil over.
- Cut the cooled-down cake into two parts and soak both good pieces of the dough with amaretto liqueur. We donot save on amaretto because it emphasizes the taste of this nut cake.
- Grease the first part of the dough with the mass, cover the second part with soaked amaretto, and put it in the refrigerator for 1 hour to allow it to cool well.Enjoy!
