Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake
Apr 28, 2007
Serve this cake to your sweetheart for a special breakfast. Or make individual Bundt cakes and tuck into lunch boxes for a treat. The cake can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to one week.
Yes, there are treats at the spa. Portions are modest, yet they satisfy that sweet craving. The usual 1/2 cup (125 mL) of butter in a cake like this has been reduced. Serve warm.
Sweet-tart cranberries add something special and festive to this cake. You can switch up the almonds with walnuts, pecans or hazelnuts, or go totally nut-free with large-flake rolled oats.
We love coffee, and anything coffee flavoured—so trust us when we say these little bites of delight need to be in your recipe repertoire.
With rich, dark coffee and chocolate, this tender, moist cake is terrific on its own, dusted with icing sugar or dressed up with ice cream, or whipped cream and berries. If you don't have strong brewed coffee, make it with 2 tbsp (25 mL) instant coffee.
Biscotti is the perfect accompaniment to an espresso or tea. Serve it with a dollop of Mascarpone Coffee Cream.
Serve this creamy martini after dinner as an alternative to the usual coffee and cake. If available, Starbucks Coffee Liqueur is the choice of the Test Kitchen.
