This sour cream coffee cake layers buttery vanilla cake with a cinnamon sugar swirl down the middle and a thick, crumbly streusel on top. The sour cream keeps it tender and moist without being heavy. What I love about this cake is that hidden cinnamon layer. You spread half the batter, sprinkle cinnamon sugar across […]

They bake up in a small 8×8 pan, so you’re not stuck with a massive batch. 🙂 The instant espresso powder does the heavy lifting […]
