GERALDINE: A CRANBERRY ORANGE SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE
For Immediate Release "Lights, Cameras.......Action"......... My "inspiration", Geraldine the self professed "cookie maven" who knighted me "The Cookie Doctor", has agreed to go public. And she has requested that I name a "piece" in her honor. Well, needless to say, I immediately agreed that this request should be honored ASAP, but then wasn't quite sure what piece I should grace with her name. At first, I thought it only befitting that I choose one of my "signature" cookies for this honor. But suddenly it dawned on me that the wonderful coffee cake I was actually making as we spoke, would indeed be the perfect choice. (People always call when I start my mixer!) This cake has "royalty" written all over it. It is a lovely, rich sour cream coffee cake that highlights cranberry and orange, is enrobed with strawberry preserves and delicately crowned with almond icing. It also shares some of the same ingredients that comprise one of my favorite cookies, so this honor is very fitting indeed. Well folks, without further ado....... I am honored to present to you my First "Signature" Piece....."Geraldine"
