Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Sour Cream Coffee Cake offers a tender, moist crumb enhanced by the richness of sour cream and butter. The cake alternates layers of smooth batter and a crunchy pecan crumble topping with cinnamon and brown sugar. Baking it in a single 9x13 pan results in a golden brown coffee cake with a delightful balance between soft cake and a textured, nutty topping. It fills the kitchen with warm aromas and can be enjoyed at breakfast or as a snack with coffee or tea.
