Found this recipe in Southern Living Magazine online. This is a really moist coffee cake, thanks to sour cream in the batter. It has the most delicious, crunchy streusel topping with toasted coconut! Mmmmmm, put on the coffee pot (and fry some bacon - I'll be right over)!
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour, divided shopping list
- 1 1/2 c. sweetened flaked coconut shopping list
- 3/4 c. light brown sugar, divided shopping list
- 1 1/2 TBSP. ground cinnamon shopping list
- 6 TBSP. unsalted butter, melted (for topping) shopping list
- 3/4 c. unsalted butter, softened (for cake) shopping list
- 1 tsp. baking powder shopping list
- 1/2 tsp. salt shopping list
- 5 large egg yolks shopping list
- 1/3 c. sugar shopping list
- 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract shopping list
- 1/2 c. sour cream shopping list
How to make it
- Make the coffee-cake topping: Combine 1/2 cup flour, coconut, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Toss in melted butter and set aside.
- Make the batter: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9-inch round springform pan with a little of the softened butter and set aside. Combine the remaining flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- Beat the egg yolks, remaining brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla using an electric mixer set on high speed until the mixture is thick and pale yellow -- about 2 minutes. Mix in the remaining butter and the sour cream. Reduce mixer speed to low, add flour mixture, and mix.
- Bake the cake: Pour batter into the prepared pan, sprinkle with topping, and bake on the middle rack of the oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean -- 55 to 60 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 1 hour. Release the cake from the pan. Serve warm.
