WALNUT COFFEE CAKE
This has been in the family some time. I am now a great-grandmother myself (I have one little great-granddaughter; in addition, I have three grandchildren and a son), and it's one of the recipes that my mother used to make long ago. I've lived on the farm where I was brought up all my life. I am a jack-of-all-trades in the kitchen, and my husband and I both enjoy hunting. -Beatrice Richard, Posen, Michigan

CINNAMON WALNUT COFFEE CAKE
This is the most moist coffee cake I have ever eaten. It is delicious right out of the oven, but is even better the next day. I wish it wasn't made from pre-packaged products, but it tastes so good, I am willing to forgive. I have made this with half of the oil substituted with half a cup of applesauce with great success. That is how I make it now. Pecans can be substituted for the walnuts as well, it is a pretty forgiving recipe.

CINNAMON SWIRL BUNDT COFFEE CAKE
A friend of mine gave me this recipe years ago. Sometimes I lower the fat content by using fat-free sour cream or yogurt instead of the sour cream. Enjoy! This can also be made into small loaf cakes which can be frozen easily.
