Coffee Cake

 

I’m glad all of these coffee cake recipes were together so I could run them as one post. The basic ingredients are the same with all three, while the first one actually calls for the addition of a cup of coffee. Sprinkling them with sugar and cinnamon before baking makes for a sweet, crunchy crust when done.

While reading the ingredients for the third recipe (the last card down is the reverse side of that recipe) I was stumped by the inclusion of a ½ cup of “Spry.” A little research led me to Spry Vegetable Shortening and Aunt Jenny, both of which I had never heard of. Interesting what you can learn from an old recipe card, eh?
