Sour Cream Coffee Cake

I grew up with this coffee cake and it’s so yummy.  My mom got the recipe from my great aunt, so I guess that makes it a family recipe.  The Man really likes coffee cake and I had forgotten about this recipe.  He was not happy when he realized I was holding out on him! He’s a happy camper when I make this recipe.

4.  Bake for 45 minutes.


5. Remove from oven and cool on bottle.  After 20 minutes, remove from pan and enjoy!
