Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Mutual gifts cement friendship.
~ Ivorian Proverb

I made a Sour Cream Coffee Cake before I went over to Allie’s for her Bulgogi lunch. It has been a while since I made this cake. Since I still have a cup of sour cream in the fridge, I thought I should use it. This goes well with coffee.

Here is the recipe.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 cups sifted flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

• Heat the oven to 350F and grease a 6-cup tube pan.
• Mix walnuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon to make topping and set aside.
• Stir or sift flour with baking powder, baking soda, and salt until dry ingredients are well combined.
• Cream the butter with the sugar until the mixture is light, then beat in the eggs and vanilla.
• Add the flour mixture in alternate thirds with the sour cream,beating well after each addition.
• Spoon half the batter into the pan and sprinkle with half the topping, then add remaining batter and sprinkle on the rest of the topping.
• Bake for 40 minutes without opening the oven, then test fordoneness (a toothpick should come out clean). It may need another 5 to 10 minutes of baking.
