STREUSEL COFFEE CAKE MIX

Streusel Coffee Cake Mix image

I prepare two different mixes-one for the cake and one for the topping-to make this sweet breakfast treat. I often give these mixes as fun holiday gifts. Along with the recipe, I usually include a cake pan, wooden spoon and festive dish towel. -Barbara Stewart, Portland, Connecticut
