THE FAMOUS DAVENPORT HOTEL'S COFFEECAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350F. Line 2 cake pans with foil. In a bowl of a standing mixer, or a hand mixer, cream sugar and butter for several minutes until light and fluffy. Blend in the sour cram and vanilla. Blend in eggs,one at a time, stopping often to scrape sides of the bowl.
• Add the cake flour, baking powder and salt. The batter will be quite loose and mellow! Line 2 cake pans with aluminum foil. Divide the batter between cake pans.
• Combine all topping ingredients in a small bowl. Mix. Sprinkle evenly on top of both cake pans. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Until center is done. Immediatly lift cake out of pan, by lifting and pulling up the foil and let cool completely on a wire rack....before carefully peeling back the foil. Dust with powdered sugar...before serving!
