OLD-FASHIONED GERMAN COFFEE CAKE
"'MY mom served this moist coffee cake every Sunday after church, but the peach topping was reserved for special occasions, like when company came,' Dad says. 'Usually, she simply sprinkled sugar and cinnamon on top.'"

Steps:
- For cake, dissolve yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar in water. Let stand 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine shortening, sugar and egg. Gradually mix in 2 cups flour, milk and yeast mixture. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Divide in half and press each half into a greased 11x7-in. baking pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Combine all topping ingredients except peaches. Sprinkle over dough. Top with peach slices. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

GERMAN STYLE EISKAFFEE (ICED COFFEE DRINK)
In Germany, there are charming areas outside many restaurants called a "Biergarten" with patio furniture in a garden setting where customers gather around 4pm for an hour or two to relax with either a beer or an iced coffee. This is the typical way an iced coffee is served in the spring & summer at German Beergardens in the Bonn area, where I currently live. It is also a popular choice as a dessert beverage. The measurements are approximate and will vary greatly based on the size of glass used. They also often stick a decorative long toothpick with metallic streamers to garnish as well as the cookie (we think they look like sparklers).

Steps:
- Place ice cream scoop into a decorative wine goblet or tall clear drinking glass.
- Add coffee to fill glass 1/2-3/4 full (amount will vary based on size of glass).
- Completely cover with a mountain of sweetened whipped cream (use the canned kind or a decorating bag to make decorative swirls)- the whipped cream should be plentiful and just start to peak over the top of the glass rim.
- Sprinkle with freshly grated good quality chocolate.
- Stick a wafer cookie into the whipped cream off to the side.
- Serve with some sugar on the side (for those who want to add more sweetness- although the ice cream and the whipped cream pretty much cover this), a long spoon, and a straw.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality coffee beans. This will make a big difference in the taste of your coffee.
- Grind your coffee beans just before brewing. This will help to release the full flavor of the coffee.
- Use the right amount of coffee grounds. Too much coffee grounds will make your coffee bitter, while too little will make it weak.
- Use filtered or spring water. Tap water can contain impurities that can affect the taste of your coffee.
- Brew your coffee at the right temperature. Coffee should be brewed between 195 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let your coffee steep for the right amount of time. The longer you steep your coffee, the stronger it will be.
- Serve your coffee immediately. Coffee is best when it is fresh.
