When I was a kid, one of my mom’s best friends made an incredible blueberry coffee cake. It was moist, filled with tart blueberries & had a great crumble. I never forgot that cake.
So, when National Coffeecake day came this year, I decided I wanted to recreate that cake with a new twist. I added a cheesecake layer to it which took the Coffeecake to another level. It gave this coffee cake a delicious boost! The crumb topping for this cake was an extra bonus. This was now the best Coffeecake I have ever had!
