I have been looking for a great coffee cake recipe and this one is a hit. Even my son who is the pickiest of eaters liked it. I reduced the baking time to about 40 min as recommended by other reviewers. I probably could've reduced the time by another 5 min.

This was a total hit in my house. I switched the confectioner's sugar to brown sugar and the walnuts to hazelnuts and it was delicious.

In a word, delicious! Since I'm not a big fan of walnuts, I simply replaced them with pecans. The result was a really yummy cake which disappeared before I had a chance to take a second slice. Highly recommended.

Wonderfully tastey and very easy to make! This coffee cake is a family favorite! I use brown sugar instead of powder sugar, and I sometimes use plain or vanilla flavored yogurt in place of the sourcream depending on what I have on hand.

A hit in our household... didn't have any walnuts available, so substituted them with a nutty cereal ... Moist, flavorful, easy to make, and better than most! Yum.

Wow, after reading all the great comments, I expected more! The cake itself was pretty bland and was very hard to spread. Replaced the powdered sugar with brown sugar but really was not all that tasty. The cook time is way off, mine took a little over 30 minutes. Edible but would not make again.

Excellent! Very moist and just the right blend of spices. I have also added 1 cup of cinnamon chips to the first layer of the Cinnamon/Sugar/Nut mix. I don't add it to the top, as the chips go hard. As other's have stated, 40 minutes was the right amount of baking time.
