Poppy Seed Coffee Cake image

I tasted this cake while visiting a friend in South Dakota. The memory of it stayed with me for years, until I finally called and asked her for the recipe. It was her mother's recipe, and she was glad to share it. I've made it often since then, and it's always a hit. Sometimes I'll sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar, and slices are also good spread with butter.

I'm not a big fan of poppy seeds, but this coffee cake was still delicious. The cake was moist and flavorful, and the glaze was the perfect finishing touch. I would definitely recommend this recipe, even if you're not a fan of poppy seeds.

This coffee cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The poppy seeds added a nice crunch and nutty flavor. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the poppy seeds were barely noticeable. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
