Growing up in the New York metropolitan area, coffee cake to me was a dense cake base
topped with big brown sugar and cinnamon crumbs. Most bakeries and delis offered some
version of this type of coffee cake. Coffee is not an ingredient in the cake. It was called that
simply because it was meant to be served with a cup of coffee. My favorite coffee cake came
from a neighborhood bakery that spread a thin layer of raspberry jelly underneath the crumbs.
This recipe is very similar to that coffee cake. So brew up a big pot of coffee and sit down with
your mom or a special friend to share a simple but sweet little treat.
