Coffee Butter Cake~

This was something i baked late this morning before we went out for lunch. A quick mix of the batter and into the oven it went~
~*Coffee Butter Cake*~
Hee... it looks kinda pale right? The top of the cake wasn't as brown as i hoped for it to be, thus, i baked the cake for an additional 5 minutes. Which was not a good idea as it became overbaked which resulted in the cracked top and a slightly dry cake...
