Everyone's Favorite Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Felina's Note:

I am posting this recipe as I almost lost it. I couldn't find my own copy, so I had to call my sister-in-law in Ohio. She and her husband loved it so much while they were here that she wrote the recipe down and took it home. She served it to her card party and they all wanted to recipe. It really is delish! Nice and moist!

Easy to make. Plenty of filling for the middle of the cake and for the top. The batter is thick so it is a little difficult to put the top layer of batter on without disturbing the cinnamon filling below it but I was able to work it out.

I made this as a breakfast treat for my coworkers. It was a HIT! I love old-fashioned coffee cake and this one is very moist and tender. Thank you for sharing Felina. Made for Fall 2009 PAC.
