    Streusel Coffee Cake Pound Cake

    Enjoy this Southern old-fashioned tender, buttery coffee and pound cake with family and friends for special weekends and brunches!  Feeds a crowd, looks elegant and tastes like heaven!  Seriously.  Like Heaven.  Seriously. 

    SLICE OF Streusel Coffee Cake Pound Cake

    As soon as I made the cake, my husband started whining. Pretty much non-stop.  Kind of driving me nuts.  You know what I mean? 

    I was hearing....When can I have the cake??  Kimmm...Can I have some coffee cake yet?  How long do I have to wait??  Ready yet?? I'm going to get some cake nowwww!  Ok???  Nowwww??? 

    Ugh...Just think of that only 20 times over and over...yep, good times! 🙂

    Streusel Coffee Cake Pound Cake

    But then, it's no wonder with this Streusel Coffee Cake Pound Cake!  Beautiful, golden and intoxicating smells of brown sugar, pound cake, vanilla and cinnamon was arousing and swirling through the house.

    Oh my Lord!  Yum....Mmmm-mmmm

    bite out of coffee cake

    So, after wrapping up the photo shoot, he finally got his wish.

    Especially, after he had his cake, all was good.  Until the next morning.  I woke up to a note placed next to the remaining coffee cake, which was three quarters left, mind you. 

    The note read..."If you touch my cake, I will hurt you" with mad emojis surrounding the lettering. 

    My husband has a very humorous side, so I'm gonna chalk that up to his cute way of saying, he loved the cake.

      This reminds me of a cake my grandmother use to make. I've been trying to replicate it for many years. It was so good. I can't wait to try this.

      • Kim Lange says

        That's awesome! You will love it and you can add blueberries or nuts or anything you wish or leave as is. Enjoy Cathy!!

      Your picture is of bundt cake. do you put the steusell crumble in the bottom first? Will it burn?

      • Kim Lange says

        May 14, 2020 at 7:58 am

        No, you put it on top of the cake and bake it in a pan like an angel food cake. Hope that helps!

      HI - I made this today and added the optional pecans to the streusel mix, the cake came out beautiful but the topping was burnt. My oven was on the correct setting. How can I avoid this in future?

      • Kim Lange says

        May 23, 2019 at 10:00 am

        Lea, I would add tin foil to the top of the pan and cover the pan loosely sometime half-way through baking or add it on top when you see it getting the color you desire and don't want it to get darker. The foil trick is awesome if this happens to any baking you are doing, even for casseroles, meats, breads, so pretty much anything! Hope this helps and I'm so happy it came out beautifully for you Lea! xo

      Absolutely delicious. I did not make the strudel correctly and it fell to the bottom. I did read up on making the strudel and next time I will get it right. This recipe is definitely going in the recipe box.

      I can almost smell this lovely cake! And the crumb! This looks amazing~maybe I’ll make this for Easter!

      • ChocolaTess says

        March 26, 2018 at 6:42 pm

        I hope you do Laura! 🙂 It's so good! Happy Easter!

    6. Jen says

      March 26, 2018 at 12:50 pm

      Did you use salted or unsalted butter?

      • ChocolaTess says

        March 26, 2018 at 2:23 pm

        I used unsalted Jen, but you can use salted if you want to omit the salt in the recipe. Hope you enjoy!!

    7. Lydia says

      March 26, 2018 at 10:21 am

      Could you make this in a loaf pan? Could you make it will less eggs?

      • ChocolaTess says

        March 26, 2018 at 12:03 pm

        You could make it in 2 loaf pans. I don't think it will all fit in one, or you could halve the recipe. As far as the eggs, you could substitute some applesauce but the texture is key to this with all the other ingredients. 1/4 cup applesauce equals one egg. Hope that helps Lydia! 🙂

      I would definitely whine for a piece of this cake too! And it would go perfectly with my cup of coffee this morning. It's coffee cake, so totally appropriate for breakfast, right?!

      • ChocolaTess says

        March 25, 2018 at 2:08 pm

        Absolutely appropriate anytime of the day if you ask me! 🙂 Thank you so much Leanne!! 🙂

      On your Streusel Coffee Cake Pound Cake, you did not give the instructions on how to prepare the cake, you gave just the Ingredients. Can you please add on the Instructions. Thank you.
