This recipe is recorded in Grandma's handwriting on a piece of notebook paper. Patty's name is at the top, so it appears that this was a recipe that she shared with Grandma. I love coffee cake. As a youngster, I was hesitant to try coffee cake for some reason. Once I tasted it, I was hooked though.
