Nothing says holiday to me like a good old fashioned coffee cake. Since it is the fall time, many people go crazy over the pumpkin spice flavour, so today I am sharing a delicious take on a coffee cake by making Pumpkin Spice Latte Coffee Cake.
The ingredients are simple and you should have everything you need right on hand.
This would make a great holiday gift to give someone. You can take it to a housewarming party, a Thanksgiving feast, or you can even take it to one of those White Elephant or Dirty Santa parties.
Let's be honest here though, you and I both know we want to make this cake so we can set and eat it while we are catching up on all our nightly shows, right?
I am sharing this recipe in both the UK version and also in the US version for our American friends as well!
