"This moist coffee cake tastes "yeasty", but you don't have to mess with the yeast. Great with coffee for breakfast or brunch."

Made for *PAC Spring 2007* Won't be waiting for Christmas to make this again !! Had 1 of DH's micro-brew beers out to get to room temp.,and he was so annoyed, he drank the rest WARM ! I am sure Bud or any other local brew would work as well. Since neither of us has a REAL "sweet" tooth, this was a true treat, as a coffee cake. I had to try it before it cooled much. Was a little concerned because batter was very thin, but baked perfectly at 350 for 45 minutes. NOTE: I always use spray Baker's Joy or Pam Baking Spray in the bundt pan - cake plops right out. We ate almost 1/2 for breakfast ! Thanks, ElainAnn. Janey
