My mother in law made this for her family for many years. My husband just loves it when she served it warm. A little cream over it when it is warm sounds good to me. (There is no vanilla or cake mix in this recipe, if you wonder if I forget it.) Ingredients:
1 cup shortening (butter or margarine) |
2 cups sugar |
4 eggs |
3 cups flour |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional) |
1 cup milk |
3 tablespoons sugar |
3 teaspoons cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Sift flour, baking powder and salt.
2. Cream shortening and sugar.
3. Add 1 egg at a time.
4. Beat well after each egg added.
5. Add milk and flour mixture alternately to creamed mixture.
6. Mix sugar and cinnamon.
7. Pour 1/2 coffeecake batter in pan, alternately with cinnamon mixture, leaving enough cinnamon mixture for top of cake.
8. Bake in 9x13-inch greased pan for 1 hour at 325 degrees, or 2 greased loaf pans for 1 hour at 350 degrees, or until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean.
9. Cool.
