FRUIT FILLED COFFEE CAKE
I got this recipe a long time ago from a friend at a former job. I have since taken it in to meetings at work several times, with different variations on the fruit filling (I've even split the coffee cake by using two different flavors, such as apple on one side & cherry on the other). No matter what, this coffee cake ALWAYS disappears!

CREAM CHEESE-FILLED COFFEECAKE WITH FRUIT PRESERVES AND CRUMBLE TOPPING
If you understand how to vary the recipe, you only need one basic coffeecake in your repertoire. My all-purpose version consists of four components: batter, cream cheese filling, fruit preserves and crumb topping. The last three can be changed (or in some cases, omitted) to create a custom cake.

Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square metal baking pan with cooking spray. Fold a 17-inch length of heavy-duty foil to 8 1/2 inches wide and fit in the pan bottom and up 2 sides, so you can use the foil overhang as a handle to pull the baked cake from the pan.
- Topping: Use hands to thoroughly mix ingredients in a medium bowl, pressing together to form large clumps; set aside.
- Cream cheese filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until thoroughly mixed. Beat in egg and vanilla until smooth; set aside.
- Cake: Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
- Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer set on medium-high until light and fluffy. Beat in egg until smooth. Beat in half the dry ingredients, then the remaining yogurt. Beat until ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Spread batter evenly over prepared pan. Spread cream cheese filling over batter. Dollop fruit filling (or sprinkle chocolate chips) over cream cheese filling. Finally, sprinkle evenly with crumble topping, pressing on it lightly to adhere.
- Bake until batter is fully set and topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Run a thin-bladed knife around the sides, then use foil handles to pull cake from pan onto the wire rack. Cool to room temperature and serve. Can be covered with foil and stored at room temperature for one day.

Tips:
- Prep Work: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature (except for butter), as this helps them combine better.
- Measuring: Use accurate measuring cups and spoons to ensure the correct proportions of ingredients.
- Baking Dish: Grease and flour your 9x13 inch baking pan to prevent the cake from sticking. You can also use cooking spray instead of greasing and flouring.
- Fruit Filling: Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor. Depending on your preference, you can use a single type of fruit or a combination of different fruits.
- Mixing: Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake. Mix until just combined.
- Baking Time: Keep an eye on the cake during baking. Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is done. Overbaking can dry out the cake.
Conclusion:
This easy fruit-filled coffee cake is a delicious treat perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With its moist crumb, sweet fruit filling, and crunchy streusel topping, this cake is sure to be a hit. Try experimenting with different fruits and spices to create your own unique variations. Remember to follow the tips provided to ensure a successful baking experience. Enjoy!
