 Catherine (Kansas) says:
I was looking for a easy to make, hearty coffee cake for my son's Middle School teacher's appreciation breakfast. I've never made this and one of the staff, who has a pastry chef background, was raving about how good it was wanting the recipe! That says it all. This is definitely a keeper. Oh, I did add a little powderdered sugar to top.
