This coffee cake is perfect for an afternoon tea. When you find yourself having a bit of a free time in the afternoon, cut yourself a slice and serve it with a cup of freshly brewed tea or coffee. I love this with coffee even if it’s a bit redundant. I drink my coffee without sugar anyway so it compliments this sweet cake.
One of our friends over at All Recipes has this to say about this recipe:
“This is the perfect cake for Sunday mornings reading the paper. Be prepared, it won’t last long. Just like potato chips, you can’t eat just one.”
I already brought this coffee cake to a potluck with my churchmates. Most of them loved coffee too so it was a hit. I came home with an empty serving dish by the end of the day! And I received a few calls asking for the recipe. Thank you, All Recipes for sharing this with us!
