I made this and it's in the oven. I'm expecting it will be delicious but man! What a mess!! I wish the instructions had said something about mixing in the coffee/buttermilk and dry ingredients by hand or in stages before beating for 3 minutes. Assuming you'd be using a stand mixer to beat for that long. Of course, even on the lowest setting, the whole mixture went flying EVERYWHERE. It's also tricky getting the cream cheese mix to stay in its lane when adding. Putting it in a piping bag or carefully added by spoonful would work better. Some clearer instructions would have helped a lot!
