A perfectly pleasant coffee cake and quick indeed. It needed 1 c. milk to produce a workable batter. I reduced the baking powder by 1 t. I used butter in place of shortening. The cake is a little compact and dry. However, it's very good with a cup of coffee and that's what we wanted this morning! Thanks for posting.
