Outrageously DELICIOUS is all I can say about this Coffee Cake... Moist and UNBELIEVABLY GOOD describes this recipe to a T! I remember the first time my friend Marie's sister made this recipe, and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. It IS that GOOD! Try it, and let me know how you like it :) I made this recipe in Memory Of Chef-I-Am for the Cake-A-Thon October 2007, in Tina's memory. It came out super moist, loaded with the flavor of cinnamon and nuts, and is definately one you should try. Everyone loved it on our Charleston trip. She would have been proud! Here's to you Tina!

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your coffee cake the best flavor and texture.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is important for any baking recipe, but it's especially important for coffee cake since the batter is so delicate.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the coffee cake tough.
  • Let the batter rest before baking: This will help the gluten in the flour to relax, which will also make the coffee cake more tender.
  • Bake the coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the coffee cake is cooked through.
  • Serve the coffee cake warm or at room temperature: This is when it will be at its best flavor.
