Chocolate Pecan Coffee Cake - Just Right for Any Time! image

Not yer average "okay, serve me for breakfast" coffeecake, this one screams: "Darhling, you simply MUST serve me as I am bursting with delicious flavors!" Calorie counters and carb-busters should cut smaller pieces--everyone else may have a normal-sized slice! Makes a very nice family-sized 'cake loaded with crunchy sweetness. Serve with a plate of fried eggs, fruit slices and milk, tea or coffee. Adapted from *Midwest Living* December 2006.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup cold butter
3/4 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350; grease & flour a 9-inch spring-form pan; set aside.
  • Prepare FILLING & TOPPING MIXTURE: Mix flour, sugar, cinnamon; cut in butter until coarse crumbs, stir in chips, coconuts and nuts; set aside.
  • Prepare CAKE PART: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar, add baking powder & soda and salt; beat until well-combined; scrape sides if necessary.
  • Add eggs one-at-a-time, beating well after each is added; add vanilla.
  • Alternate adding flour and sour cream, beat (or hand mix) on low speed after each until combined.
  • Spread half of the batter into prepped pan; sprinkle with half of the Filling/Topping mixture.
  • Spoon mounds of remaining batter over the filling, then spread evenly as best you can; sprinkle remaining topping.
  • Bake for 45 minutes; cover lightly with foil to prevent over-browning; finish baking for another 15-20 minutes.

This coffee cake was a disaster. It was burnt and the flavor was awful. I would not recommend this recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out terrible. It was dense and dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

The cake was a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some extra moisture next time.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise it was good. The chocolate and pecan flavors were nice together.
