Raspberry Coffee Cake

The Sunday Funday Bloggers are celebrating National Raspberry Cake Day........
Cam of Culinary Adventures with Camilla is hosting our group this week and invited us all to join her in baking up a raspberry cake.  Let's see what everyone baked up........



Raspberry Coffeecake

This is a simple cake made special by the addition of fresh raspberries.  It bakes up in less than half an hour.  The hardest part is holding yourself back while it cools so you can add a delicious almond flavored glaze.

I baked up this cake one morning before we left to go take a look at a property that we are vacationing at a couple of hours north of our home on Lake Huron.  The owners of the home had donated a week's stay at their place to our Parish School for their Annual Dinner Auction.

I won the bid and the owners generously invited us up to see the property and serve us lunch.  I volunteered to bring dessert.  The cake turned out lovely.  In fact, the owners of the property sent me an email asking for the recipe.
