CHERRY COFFEE CAKE



Cherry Coffee Cake image

Give your normal coffee cake a major upgrade with one simple ingredient: cherry pie filling. This recipe takes no time to whip together and requires minimal clean-up.

Provided by Leah Maroney

Categories     Dessert     Breakfast     Cake

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the Cake:
3/4 cup butter (salted, softened)
1 1/4 cups sugar (granulated)
4 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup milk
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (21 ounce) cans cherry pie filling
For the Streusel:
1/2 cup butter (melted)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Icing:
1/4 cup butter (salted, melted)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons milk
2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Alternatively, use a large bowl and a hand mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
  • Beat the eggs in, one at a time, until each is incorporated.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and milk until just combined.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl, then beat on medium-low until completely combined. Be careful to not overmix-you can stop mixing once there are just a few streaks of dry ingredients. Switch to a silicone spatula, scraping down the bowl and folding until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Spray a 9-x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Make sure to generously grease the sides as well as the bottom.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading into an even layer.
  • Pour the cherry pie filling across the top of the cake to evenly cover the top.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. With a rubber spatula or your hands, fold the ingredients together until a crumbly mixture forms.
  • Evenly distribute the streusel over the top of the cherry pie filling.
  • Bake until the streusel is browned and the cherry juices are bubbling, and a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until the icing is smooth.
  • Let the cake cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Drizzle the icing all over the top of the cherry coffee cake. Slice and serve.
