This sour cream coffee cake is so moist and delicious, filled with a cinnamon sugar and pecan crumble. What’s not to love??Who out there loves a decadent breakfast cake with a rich cup of coffee? I know I do!

This is one of the first coffee cakes I had ever tasted. It was one of those recipes that mom got from a recipe exchange at her work many, many years ago.

I can still envision the warm scent of cinnamon coming from the oven the day that she made this cake. I could not wait for it to cool so that we try it.

It was totally worth the wait. One bite and I was hooked!

    Yum! I am going to make this for us as soon as I get past all the mandatory baking this week. One question, instead of 1/2 butter and 1/2 margarine, can it be as successful if made with all butter?
