The Germans are believed to have introduced coffee cake long ago with its characteristic streusel topping. However, it was 1950’s American wives and mothers that transformed it into a sweet cake with many different variations and the classic hole in the middle. Regardless of how you prepare it today, it still pairs perfectly with coffee!
These little cakes with their gooey chocolatey interior are the perfect treat to celebrate the New Year. Crushed peppermint or candy canes make for a delicious and seasonal topping.
