The reviewer gave this recipe 3 stars. This recipe averages a 4.6 star rating.
Reviewed: Oct. 3, 2008
To me this was very dense. I like the usual crumbly coffee cake, and I'm thinking maybe there should only be 2 eggs in here rather than 3. It was a bit too heavy for my liking. I did reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup and it was enough. Also, I added a pinch of salt. I skipped the icing part. I just did a bit of conf. sugar with milk for a lighter icing. I don't think I will make this again, as it's just too heavy of a cake for my family. It's very sweet and rich.

This cake was very good! It was moist and delicious! I skipped the icing since it was sweet enough with the streusel in the cake and on top. Will definitely make again!

I made this for a brunch yesterday. I just loved it, the ladies loved it and my husband too! I did make some changes though: I lessened the sugar to 1/2 cup, I used whole wheat flour, and used walnuts instead of pecans. I was a little bit concerned the dough was too thick, but after reading other reviews I was reassured it would come out just fine, and so it did! You could also lessen the sugar calories by substituting the white sugar for Agave Nectar. But beware Agave Nectar's Sweeter than sugar so remember this rule: 1 cup sugar = 2/3 cup Agave Nectar. Enjoy!

This was pretty good. After trying several coffe cake recipes, this is by far the best. I used a dark bundt pan so as one reviewer commented to watch the baking time I did only have to bake for 35 minutes. I left the nuts out due to nut allergy in the family, but everything else the same. Will make again.

Absolutely delicious! I will be making this often! I baked it in a 13 by 9 pan for exactly 33 minutes. I reduced the sugar in the cake to 1/2 cup and used walnuts instead of pecans because that is all that I had. No need to double the crumbs, there were plenty, and the cake was very moist! Oh and I skipped the glaze altogether. Really no need for the extra sugar!

Excellent recipe! This was a hit at a woman's breakfast I took it to. The streusel topping was amazing, and I have made that by itself a few times, to use in quick cinnamon roles. The icing turned out terrible though, but that could have been my mistake...

Delicious! This will definitely be my "go-to" coffee cake recipe. I loved the filling. This is even great without the glaze.

You can't go wrong with this recipe. It is perfect, though a bit sweet. Next time we will reduce both sugar amounts as the drizzle topping is also total sweetness. Perfect dinner dessert and morning leftover!

I was pretty my result however, if your using a dark bundt pan; you should take 10 minutes off of the posted bake time to avoid burning the cake.

Oh my goodness! This cake is amazing. I made it just as directed except had to mix in some walnuts with pecans and it turned out amazing. I have made 4 of these at friends/family request. When I took it to a family reunion everyone thought my mother-in-law had made it! Now that's a compliment.
