say hello to morning with a big slice of this tasty Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake!
I’m a morning person. I always have been. Back when I was a little kid, I’d wake up at 5:30am.
I couldn’t go back to sleep, so I’d get up and read comic books, or watch cartoons. And not those new-aged cartoons where everyone gets a trophy. I’m talking Tom & Jerry, Popeye and Wile E. Coyote. (And eat some sort of a melt in your mouth kind of coffee cake and some milk.) To be fair, it just slightly reminds me of a coffee cake flavor, but definitely more moist.
Instead of a crumb topping, you have an ooey gooey cinnamon and glaze topping, which sinks in as it bakes. They are hills and valleys of cinnamon and glaze.
Yup, I’m talking about Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake !!
So, if you like Cinnamon rolls, then you owe it to yourself to try this Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake!
It’s the kind of cake that can be served for breakfast along with a steaming mug of coffee. Or you can pull this one out for dessert and again with a steaming mug of coffee. or some milk if you are little kid 🙂
No matter how you prefer your coffee cake, I hope you enjoy this one! It’s good. Like really good!
