Coffee Cake is one of my all-time favorites!
Though, I’ve rarely met a cake that I didn’t enjoy. In truth, that’s because it was probably just over-baked, and dried out.
Yet coffee cake remains a top favorite of mine! It can be prepared in a variety of ways – and they’re all absolutely delicious!
This is a very traditional coffee cake – and you just can’t go wrong with that.
