Orange Cream Cheese Coffee Cake image

This is a very good coffee cake. It does not have a strong orange flavor. We have served it to many people and have never been disappointed. All want the recipe afterwards.

Time 1h

Yield 1 10inch coffee cake

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon grated orange rind
2 (11 ounce) cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (1869 brand)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into 20 squares
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Combine the granulated sugar, pecans and orange rind in a bowl; set aside for future use.
  • Separate biscuit dough into individual biscuits; then gently separate individual biscuits in half.
  • Place a cream cheese square between the 2 halves and pinch sides to seal each back together.
  • Dip in butter and dredge in granulated sugar mixture.
  • Stand biscuits on edge in a lightly greased 12-cup Bundt pan, spacing evenly.
  • Drizzle with remaining butter and sprinkle with remaining granulated sugar mixture.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until golden.
  • Immediately invert onto a serving plate.
  • Glaze: Combine powdered sugar and orange juice; stir well.
  • Drizzle over warm bread.
  • Serve immediately.
  • You may omit the cream cheese but still separate biscuits in half and dip as normal in sugar mixture.
  • We do a half and half batch.
  • There is not a strong orange flavor here.
