Want some coffee cake this weekend? (brown sugar, cinnamon, powder, baking)

[gentlearts]

I had a lot of sour cream to use up, so I unearthed this favorite recipe. Goes together quick and easy.

Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Grease a 9" springform pan. Preheat oven to 350.

Combine for streusel:
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teas. cinnamon
1 cup chopped pecans, or nuts of your choice

In a bowl, place,
2 cups flour
1 teas. baking powder
1 teas. baking soda
1/2 teas. salt

In your food processor, or mixing bowl, beat thoroughly: (fits in my mini chopper that's already dirty from the nut chopping)

2 eggs
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar (I might cut this in half next time)
1 teas. vanilla
Stir in
1 cup sour cream

Stir batter into flour mixture until mixed.

Layer 1/2 batter into pan, sprinkle with 1/2 streusel. Repeat.

Bake 45-55 minutes. Cool for 30 mins before serving.

CD rules won't let me rep you again yet Gentlearts.

Thanks for the recipe. It is going in my recipe box right now.

Oh, yum! Can't wait to try this!

I made 1 error and forgot to put the 1/4 C sugar in the streusel. It still turned out very good!
That 30 minute wait for it to cool got shortened


This turned out to be breakfast AND brunch. Big thumbs up for the recipe!!!

That turned out lovely, grampa Tom. I'll bet with that sour cream in there it was light as a feather.

Thanks, you two, for the eye candy.

I made it today and cut the sugar back to 1/2 cup, I'm someone who dislikes overly sweet desserts and it's fine for me. When I make it again I think I'll use 2/3 cup which should be a good compromise and maybe please more varied tastes. Great recipe! and came out looking like something from a 'real' bakery.
