Description:
Indulge in the delightful flavors of our Quick Cheese Coffee Cake recipe, perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a cozy brunch or a sweet treat for Christmas. This easy-to-make cake is a crowd-pleaser, featuring a creamy cheese filling nestled in a golden brown crust, sprinkled with a cinnamon-sugar topping.
Ingredients:
- 1 package cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). This ensures that your coffee cake bakes evenly and to perfection.
-
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, flour, and egg. Beat the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. This luscious mixture forms the decadent filling for our coffee cake.
-
Prepare the Crust: Take your refrigerated biscuit dough and separate it into 10 biscuits. Arrange these biscuits in an ungreased 8 or 9-inch round cake pan. Press the biscuits over the bottom and up the sides of the pan, forming a crust-lined base.
-
Add the Cream Cheese Filling: Pour the prepared cream cheese mixture over the crust in the pan. Spread it evenly, ensuring every bite is filled with creamy goodness.
-
Sprinkle with Cinnamon-Sugar: In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Sprinkle this delightful mixture over the cream cheese filling, adding a sweet and aromatic touch to your coffee cake.
-
Bake to Perfection: Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 24-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges of the crust are deep golden brown. The enticing aroma will fill your kitchen as your coffee cake bakes to perfection.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the coffee cake from the oven and allow it to cool for about 20 minutes. You can serve it warm or at room temperature, depending on your preference. Store any leftovers in the fridge to keep them fresh for later enjoyment.
