Que Que (Chilean Coffee Cake) image

This is a low, dense coffee cake, with a hint of citrus. I recommend using the lemon extract vs the vanilla called for in the recipe. My cake tends to fall in the center as some of the posters have mentioned. I tried baking in a 9x9 pan and it helped, but still sank a little. If anyone has suggestions, I love to hear them as this really is a delicious coffee cake --Brenda.

I'm not a fan of orange-flavored desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good. The orange flavor was subtle and not overpowering, and the cake itself was moist and delicious.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it had a nice texture and the orange flavor was nice.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the orange flavor was barely noticeable.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy coffee cake. The batter came together quickly and easily, and the cake baked up in no time. The flavor was good, but I think I would add a little more cinnamon next time.

This queque was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try using a different recipe next time.

This Chilean coffee cake, or queque, was a hit! It had a moist and fluffy crumb, and the flavors of orange and cinnamon were perfectly balanced. I would definitely make this again.
