You will love this coffeecake if you love true almond flavor and coffee. This is so good with your morning coffee..This recipe was given to me by a member of our Church when I lived in Alburqueque,NM...she was a recipe hound like most of us... This cake is best if made a day ahead ; cover and let stand at room temperature.

Overall, I thought this almond coffee cake was a good recipe. It was easy to make and the flavor was good. I would definitely make it again, but I might make a few changes to the recipe to make it a little less sweet and a little more moist.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think next time I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.
