Categories     Breakfast

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 yellow cake mix (I like Duncan Hines Just use the mix, don't not follow the directions on the back!)
4 eggs
¾ cup canola or vegetable oil
¾ cup water
½ cup instant vanilla pudding ((just the dry mix, not prepared))
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon of cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350; grease 9x13 metal pan.
  • Mix all the ingredients for the cake in a mixer for 7 minutes (this is key to make the pudding set). I love to use my Kitchen Aid mixer for this!
  • Meanwhile, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
  • Once the cake is done mixing for 7 minutes, pour half of the batter in the greased 9x13 metal pan. Sprinkle ½ of the brown sugar mix over the cake in the pan.
  • Pour the remaining batter on and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
  • Place in oven and bake 25-35 minutes. Or until the cake is set and is pulling away from the edges. Let it completely cool so it does crumble when you cut and serve it.

I learned the hard way that this recipe is very forgiving. I misread the directions and added a whole 16oz. container of sour cream. But it still came out fantastic! This was fluffy, moist and very flavorful. Would go great with a cup of coffee, some milk, or even a glass of white wine! Perfect for the holiday's, a bake sale,...

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 lb butter, softened
1 c sugar
2 eggs, beaten
8 oz sour cream
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
TOPPING AND MIDDLE OF CAKE
1/2 c chopped walnuts
1/4 c sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
NOTE: I ALWAYS DOUBLE THE TOPPING AND PUT 1/2 IN THE MIDDLE AND 1/2 ON TOP OF CAKE. WE LOVE IT !
**CAKE CAN BE GLUTEN FREE/WHEAT FREE BY SWAPPING GF FLOUR FOR REGULAR FLOUR. THE CAKE WILL BE DELICIOUS.

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter, and sugar in a large bowl. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla, beating on medium speed until well blended.
  • 2. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Add gradually to creamed mixture, beating after each addition.
  • 3. Have walnuts, sugar and cinnamon mixed together. Butter a 9-inch spring form pan. Put 1/2 the batter into pan and sprinkle 1/2 the cinnamon mixture over batter. Add remaining batter and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon mixture. **batter will be thick, so I dollop it over the cinnamon layer of cake, and gently blend it together with the back of a spoon, then sprinkle cinnamon over top of cake.
  • 4. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

MOM'S DIVINE COFFEE CAKE

I got this recipe from mom, who got it out of an old cookbook, and decided to rename it "Mom's coffee cake" . In fact, she renamed everything "moms" if it was good! Anyways, it is a great basic coffee cake, and can be made with or without the nuts. Impress your work friends, church group, or house guests. It is yummy, and tastes better the next day.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your coffee cake.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature. This will help them to cream together more easily and make a lighter, fluffier cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the cake more tender.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. This will help to ensure that they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too runny or too thick.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 inch pan.
  • Bake the coffee cake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the coffee cake to cool completely before frosting.
