These cakes were a complete disaster. They were so dry and crumbly that they fell apart when I tried to eat them.

I followed the recipe exactly but my cakes didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a bit dense and the streusel topping was too crumbly.

I'm not a huge fan of coffee cake, but these cakes changed my mind. They are so moist and flavorful, and the streusel topping is to die for.

These cakes are so easy to make and they taste amazing. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve.
