Baby Cake Coffee Cake -- Baby Cake #2

Baby Cake Coffee Cake

The texture of these is delicate and moist, and the taste is so rich and flavourful that you won't miss the white sugar, white flour, and other assorted evils of a more traditional coffee cake. Enjoy, and consider naming your first born (first born baby cake) after me.
