Mom’s Quick Streusel Coffee Cake
in Breakfast/Brunch, Cakes/cupcakes, Coffee Cakes, Mom's recipes, Sour cream, Streusel on Tuesday, December 27, 2011
The subject was coffee yesterday so today it is time for a good coffee cake to go with the coffee. I love coffee cake with this being a great one since it is as the title says: quick, plus easy and delicious. This coffee cake of Mom’s is moist with the addition of the sour cream and a treat for the morning or any time.
Speaking of “easy”, this is how easy it is: after dealing with 11” of snow in our driveway, we came inside and I put this coffee cake together in just a few minutes! How easy is that?

Sunday Morning
Antonio Feralli
Good morning! Ah, it’s Sunday morning and time for a coffee cake. There’s nothing like it early in the morning with a cup of steaming coffee. I love the aroma coming from the oven, filled with a great cinnamon fragrance. It makes the house smell like a bakery…
This is a recipe of Mom’s; it’s moist, buttery and filled with plenty of good things! She added 1 cup of sugar, I add ¾ cup; she had a great sweet tooth and loved her sweets. It also combines sour cream and chopped nuts, with a nice flavorful streusel on top.
This coffee cake is very good and quite easy to make; quick like she says! Mix it together; pop it in the oven and Voila! You are ready to enjoy it hot out of the oven, warm or room temperature. And it even freezes well if you care to do so. I like it right out of the oven myself!
So get to baking your coffee cake and brew up your coffee!

Swedish Cardamom Coffee Cake
in Breakfast/Brunch, Cakes/cupcakes, Cardamom, Coffee Cakes, Sour cream, Swedish on Friday, October 28, 2011
I want to spice up your morning with Swedish Cardamom Coffee Cake! I’ve told you about my Swedish mother-in-law several times, her love of cardamom and my love of cardamom in other posts. So, here is yet another cardamom recipe in a yummy coffee cake!
Remember? I wrote that cardamom has a very unique flavor. It’s a member of the ginger family; a spice with a little zip and is slightly sweet. It has many health benefits concerning the digestive tract; the ancient Romans and Greeks thought it was an aphrodisiac and put the spice in their love potions. In fact, I read somewhere that cardamom has a calming effect which in small amounts is a wonderful pacifier for toddlers; hyperactive children are immediately calmed. Cardamom has also been used as a tooth cleaner, a perfume and even as a cure for obesity. However, I don’t know if any of these claims are true; I just know that cardamom has a very smooth, pleasant taste!
This coffee cake is loaded with good flavors and the aroma as it bakes is mouthwatering. The sweet, subtle taste of the cinnamon and cardamom combined with sour cream and other ingredients results in a wonderful, tasty breakfast treat!
