Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

Cream the butter, then beat in the brown sugar. Add the egg and vanilla and mix well. Mix in the flour, followed by the walnuts. Butter and flour a 9-inch (23 cm) square tin. Spread the cake mixture evenly in the tin.

Using a hand mixer, mix the Mascarpone and icing sugar. Add the egg and mix well. Add the coffee and mix well. Pour the frosting over the cake mixture in the tin.
