LOL. It's not actually made with coffe, it just goes very well with
coffee. Sorta like donuts & cinnamon rolls, etc.... There are many
different coffee cake recipes, but I always cheat & use the bisquick
recipe for me & my family, as I usually have the ingredients on hand.
Bisquick is a store bought product that you use to make other foods
with (biscuits, pancakes, etc...)

Bisquick Coffee Cake: Betty Crocker

Heat oven to 375°F.

Ingredients:

* Cinnamon Streusel (below)
* 2 cups Original Bisquick® mix (recipe added below)
* 2/3 cup milk or water
* 2 tablespoons sugar
* 1 egg

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 9-inch round pan. Make Cinnamon
Streusel; reserve.
2. Stir remaining ingredients until blended.
3. Mix in a 1/4 of the Streusel topping and spread in pan. Cover
with Cinnamon Streusel.
4. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until golden brown, testing with a
toothpick.

Cinnamon Streusel Topping (I double this & put a layer in the center
of batter. Many, many people do this. 1 streusel recipe is just not
enough)

* 2/3 cup Original Bisquick® mix
* 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 4 tablespoons butter or margarine (firm)

Mix all ingredients in small bowl until crumbly. Cutting them with a
knife and fork helps seperate the butter.

Bisquick 'copycat' recipe

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
5 teaspoons Baking powder
1 teaspoon Salt
5 tablespoons Solid shortening
3 tablespoons Unsalted butter -- cut up

Directions:

In a large bowl whisk together dry ingredients.

With electric mixer on low or #2 of a 3 speed mixer, cut in fats until
uniform in texture and fat particles are no longer visible. Remove from
mixer.

Divide among 3 air tight containers (makes about a 'scant' 2C each
container) . & Keep refrigerated for up to one month.

Oh. Thank you for these recipes, although I thought there was coffee inside

I have a question: what is the "Solid shortening"?
cheers
