PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE COFFEE CAKE
Try the beloved fall latte in cake form! The flavor of coffee and pumpkin spice is in every layer--from the crisp streusel topping, to the pumpkin cake itself, and then the surprise little bit of filling in the center. I highly recommend making this cake the day before you need it---the flavors get a chance to meld and are so incredible the next day.

APPLE SPICE CINNAMON SWIRL COFFEE CAKE
If you love cinnamon and apples, then this coffee cake is for you. It smells heavenly while baking. Starting with a spiced cake mix and apple muffin mix makes this easy to make and creates a yummy flavor combination. It's full of cinnamon and apples in every bite. This is a dense cake-like most coffee cakes, but very moist too....

Steps:
- 1. For Cake: Sift together all the dry ingredients several times - cake and muffin mix, instant coffee, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- 2. In stand mixer, using paddle, starting on slow speed blend dry ingredients with eggs (one at a time).
- 3. Add yogurt, milk, oil. Blend on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
- 4. Add apples and nuts. Blend a few more minutes until all ingredients are incorporated scraping the sides often.
- 5. CINNAMON SWIRL (best to do this after batter has been mixed as it only takes a minute). Melt butter. Add sugars and cinnamon. If mixture is too thick add a few teaspoons of milk until the consistency of gravy.

- 7. Dollop cinnamon swirl onto the batter 2 tablespoons at a time.
- 8. With a knife, gently swirl the cinnamon through being careful not to touch the bottom. NOTE: I learned the hard way, it sticks to the bottom and cake is difficult to get out.
- 9. BAKE @ 350 for how however many minutes, depending on size pan. For the mini loaf pans, it took 30-33 minutes. It also depends on your oven. Test Kitchen Note: It took 40 minutes for our 9x13 pan.
- 10. If you want an icing, with a mix whisk 3 tbsp of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1-2 tbsp of almond milk.
- 11. Drizzle or spread over cooled cakes.

Tips:
- Ensure Accurate Measurements: Use a kitchen scale for precise measurements, especially for ingredients like flour, sugar, and spices, to ensure consistent results.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar Thoroughly: Creaming butter and sugar together until light and fluffy incorporates air into the mixture, leading to a tender and moist cake.
- Freshly Ground Spices: Use freshly ground spices for maximum flavor and aroma. Grinding spices just before using releases their essential oils, resulting in a more flavorful cake.
- Mixing Wet and Dry Ingredients Separately: Mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining them. This helps avoid overmixing, which can result in a dense cake.
- Whisking Dry Ingredients: Before adding dry ingredients to the wet mixture, whisk them together to ensure even distribution and prevent lumps.
- Avoid Overmixing: Overmixing the batter can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough and chewy cake. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined.
- Optimum Baking Temperature: Bake the cake at the specified temperature in the recipe. A higher temperature can cause the cake to rise too quickly and brown excessively, while a lower temperature may result in undercooked cake.
- Toothpick Test for Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake towards the end of the baking time. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached, the cake is done.
- Cooling the Cake Properly: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving. This helps the cake to set and prevents the frosting from melting.
