I woke up early this morning so that I could make a treat for my family…Coffee Cake! I decided to take pictures along the way so I could share them with my readers.
Soooo…let’s get started, shall we? 
First, I had to set the oven for 350° …
While the oven warmed up,
I sprayed pan with cooking spray …
Once I got all the dry ingredients together,
I had to whisk ‘em in with an egg and some water…
Now that it was all mixed up properly,
I spread half of the mixture into the bottom of the baking dish…
Once there was a fairly level layer of batter
in the bottom of the baking dish,
I grabbed a measuring cup and filled it
with a mixture of cinnamon, sugar,
and other such numminess….
At this point, I sprinkled a lovely layer
of said mixture over the entire pan of batter.
Now that I’d done that,
I had to create different little globs of batter
on top of the cinnamon and sugar concoction…
Once the globs of dough had been made,
it was time to sprinkle more of the
cinnamon and sugar stuff over the top…
As you’ve probably picked up on by now,
there’s pretty much a layering effect going on here. 
Anyway….here’s what it looked like after I’d loaded up the glob layer with the cinnamon/sugar tastiness…
At this point, I grabbed a butter knife and swirled it around a bit…mixing the dough up a bit. 
I really got that knife in there and mixed it around a bit….
I was going for pretty much a marble looking effect…
So, now that all the layering is done,
it’s time to slide the Coffee Cake into the ol’ oven!
Can’t forget to set the timer!
And now that it’s in the oven,
it’s time to make myself a big ol’ tumbler of coffee!
Can’t forget the Hazelnut creamer.
It makes the world go ’round!
After a while had gone by and I’d already ingested a tumbler of coffee,
I figured I’d better check on the Coffee Cake
to see how well it was coming along…
Not only was it looking totally flippin’ killer,
but it was smelling soooo good, too!
I was chillaxing and doing my best to be patient
when I finally heard the timer go off!
YAY! Time to take the tasty treat out of the oven!!!
Ooooh boy! I can’t begin to tell you
how good that thing smelled! 
Here it is cooling on a rack!
Lastly, here is a picture of the sacred
Coffee Cake with a piece cut out of it…
I can’t express how good this thing was!
My daughter and I sat on our stools next to the counter
and slowly ate our hunks of cake.
I’m burned out with the business junk.
Stumble It!
