What is the middle layer?
Thanks
There is no middle layer. Sometimes the topping gets swirled down a little or even sinks down a little and it is the cinnamon and stuff that you are seeing.
Pretty much the same recipie we call Cowboy Coffee Cake. My mom’s 89 & it was a recipe she got in her jr high home economics class. Its also great with raisins &/or nuts
Can I use butter instead of shortening?
You can use butter
I am dairy free and cannot find a dairy free butter substitute that melts like real butter and tastes like butter. I use Earth Balance Soy Free for sandwiches and buttering cooked food, but it melts very watery. Any suggestions? I try and avoid soy and “natural and artificial flavors” additives.
I am afraid I don’t have any but one of our readers might.
Do you think butter flavored Crisco would work?
Yes in something like this it would be really yummy
Maybe coconut oil or coconut juice in the can or a 1/2 cup blended cashews
Those things aren’t bad but they are way more expensive and if you are trying to get out of debt something less expensive would be better.
Hi from Australia
The cake didn’t even get a chance to cool!
I put dollops of the mixture then swirled it through.I don’t have shortening so used melted marg.
Yummy
This is similar to cinnamon rolls without all the work but just as delicious! The best part is I had all the ingredients!
Be sure to read the recipe through before starting.
I may reduce the salt next time… but there will be a next time!
