Directions
Swedish Coffee Cake,Editing per my Grandmother to get the story right: This cake recipe was passed down to my great Grandmother Helen from my Swedish great great Grandmother Maria. It is over 100 years old…possibly 150 or more! Some of my Swedish relatives started the famous Svenhards bakery here in California. They no longer own it but their original packages have my great great Aunt Tilda’s (Maria’s sister) photo on them! *My Grandmother also says to please beat the egg whites…they make the cake lighter and fluffier.,I am a beginner baker. However, I am progressing and my folks LOVE crumb cake. My mom’s birthday is tomorrow and I just tried my first piece of this out of the oven..AMAZING! I am so proud of myself, even though it took me a few hours. The cake has a perfect rise, the inside is very light and airy, and it even has a bit of a crust. It is not too sweet at all. Only changes: it is a little dry and I’m sure that is my fault and not the recipes–I may have baked a little bit too long. I also would have used all of the crumble instructed. It felt like a lot and I stopped. Overall I’m thrilled with this. Cant wait for my mom to try some tomorrow.,I JUST made this coffee cake and it truly IS light and airy. I’m not a big coffee cake person but I can’t seem to stop eating it!!! It definitely will be a hit at tonight’s women’s ministry meeting. I did substitute coconut milk for regular milk because I didn’t have any milk on hand. And I added pecans to the topping. I would have liked it a bit more if there was a bit more butter in the topping but I’ll have to remember that for next time! LOVED it. Thank you for sharing it with us!!!
