We loved this simple cake it was delicious. Made as written but used coconut instead of nuts (dh is allergic). The cake was light, tender, moist and oh so flavorful. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe Teresa. Made FYC Tag Game. -
I don't understand the science behind it but this cake baked up beautifully and was moist. I added 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, used coconut oil for shortening and baked the cake in a tube pan. Perfect with my morning coffee! I love pecans and this cake hit the spot! Took closer to bake-about 40 minutes. Prepared for the FYC tag game. -

Made this to take to the hospital for my fellow volunteers, This was a very nice dessert for us. For the nuts I used chopped pecans, and evrybody, along with myself enjoyed this wonderful coffee cake, as first come first served, it was gone in no time, just glad I had a portion. A great afternoon or for anytime dessert for guest. Made for PRMR. -
This is a nice little coffee cake but I did think it was a little dry. I didn't let it sit overnight, just mixed it up and baked it. Perhaps that was the problem. I also added some cinnamon to the topping and vanilla to the batter. Made for 123HITS cooking tag game. -
I really enjoyed this! Simple, light textured and very tasty. I didn't refrigerate it but mixed in the morning and baked right away. It's so very simple, mixing it together in the morning took less then 10 minutes. I added a little cinnamon to the topping and vanilla to the cake. YUM! Made for PRMRT
