Coffee Cake


Whenever we would visit my grandma she would always make this for breakfast. Being a kid and getting cake for breakfast was mind blowing. And of course the title of this moist yummy cake is misleading. There is not a drop of coffee in it. I always have to remind my husband that despite the name this cake lacks his arch nemesis.
