Ingredients
  • 3 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 t. baking powder
  • 1 1/2 t. baking soda
  • 1 t. salt
  • 1 c. butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 c. sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 15-ounce carton ricotta cheese
  • 3/4 c. chopped nuts (I use pecans)
  • 1/2 c. packed dark brown sugar
  • 2 T. toasted wheat germ
  • 1 T. ground cinnamon
  • 1 t. ground nutmeg

Directions
  1. Grease bottom and 1/2-inch up the sides of a 13x9x2-inch baking pan; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated sugar; beat until combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in ricotta cheese. Beat in as much of the flour mixture as you can. Stir in any remaining flour mixture with a wooden spoon. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
  3. In a bowl, combine nuts, brown sugar, wheat germ, cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle evenly over batter in pan. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Uncover coffee cake and bake for 50 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool slightly in pan on a wire rack. Serve warm.
