Coffee Cake!

    Doesn't everyone need a good, moist coffee cake in their lives now and then? (Specifically, every other Saturday morning?)

 

This was so yummy! (It almost tasted like a real cake!) I think I ate two or three pieces at breakfast and another piece and a half as a snack later...

 

 

Coffee Cake Recipe:

Serves 8-10

 

1c. butter

1 1/2c. sugar

4 tsp. vanilla

2 eggs

4c. flour

2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1 1/2c. milk with 1 tsp. of lemon juice added to it

 

 

1. Preheat the oven to 350F. In a mixer bowl cream the butter and sugar. Add the eggs, beating well after each addition, and the vanilla.

2. Combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in another bowl and add to the butter and sugar mixture. Add the milk/lemon juice and stir until no streaks of flour remain.

3. Grease a 9x13 or 12in. round cake pan (I grease the pan, line the bottom with wax paper, and then grease it again. I think I've been traumatized by cakes not coming out in one piece, so I have to take safety precautions. ;) ) and pour the batter in. Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few crumbs attached.
