Re: Coffee Cake

Looks delicious ? Has anyone tried it ? Is it worth making ?

Re: Coffee Cake

Sadaf, why did you click on the thread :stuck_out_tongue: Or make it for Abdullah and eat half of it yourself. :smiley:

nisa: From what i have heard coffee cake is to be served iwth coffee, and it doesnt have coffee in it.

hugsy: have a hug and a cake :hugz:

Diva: i only post recipes after i have tried them :smiley: THe pic is also of the cake that i baked. It was pretty moist perhaps because of the cream cheese. I dont like homemade cakes that are dryish and you need to dunk them in chai or something. THis one was pretty good, i even impressed myself. The recipe is exactly as i tried it except that i used olive oil for the cake batter since i didnt have that much butter.

Re: Coffee Cake

:vivo:
I dont care, i will bake this cake.

Re: Coffee Cake

Ira did u use equal quantity of oil as butter is?as i want to try this too

Re: Coffee Cake

Sadaf let us know how it turns out!
aaish, yes i used equal amount of oil to butter. It turned out fine or perhaps butter would be better. We mostly use oil to bake and cook anyways. But i did use butter for the topping.

Edit: Gemini the Great uploaded the pic for me because i could only make the link appear and not the pic. So the pic is of the actual cake that i baked :blush:

Re: Coffee Cake

Ira - made the cake last night and it has turned out awesome !! Thank you for sharing the recipe. I also added walnuts to the topping, it added an extra crunch. Yum :)
