BLUEBERRY COCONUT COFFEE CAKE

Adapted from Quick Cooking. I tried this delicious recipe and wrote in capital letters across the page "Excellent!" I rediscovered this yummy recipe again today as I was digging through my recipe box searching for fall favorites. The recipe originally called for shortening, but I prefer the rich flavor or real unsalted butter. Since this recipe makes 2 cakes, you can leave the coconut off the second if you want one plain. I often freeze the second cake after baking.

Time 35m

Yield 2 cakes, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 large eggs
1 cup milk (I used skim)
2 cups fresh blueberries or 2 cups frozen blueberries, unthawed
1 1/3 cups shredded coconut

Steps:

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt.
Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly.
In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk, then add to the flour mixture, stirring just enough to moisten the ingredients (overmixing will make a tough cake).
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Pour batter into two greased round 9" baking pans.
Sprinkle evenly with coconut.
Bake in a preheated 375 F oven for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick tests clean when poked near the center of cake.
Serve warm.

Tips:

For a richer flavor, use dark roast coffee in the cake batter and streusel topping.
To ensure the streusel topping doesn't burn, keep a close eye on it in the oven and remove the cake when the topping is golden brown.
If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can easily make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes before using.
For a more pronounced coconut flavor, use unsweetened shredded coconut in the cake batter and streusel topping.
If you prefer a sweeter cake, increase the amount of sugar in the cake batter to 1 1/2 cups.
For a more moist cake, add an extra 1/4 cup of vegetable oil to the cake batter.

This Coconut Blueberry Coffee Cake is a delightful treat that is perfect for any occasion.
