WHAT MAKES COFFEE CAKE DIFFERENT FROM CAKE?

The component that turns a regular cake into a coffee cake is the streusel topping. A traditional streusel topping is usually made of flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and butter. In this case, the streusel has pumpkin spice for added pumpkin flavor!

CAN COFFEE CAKE BE A DESSERT?

Coffee cake is traditionally served as breakfast, hence the name "coffee" cake, since it is typically served with a cup of hot coffee. However, there are certainly no rules around when you can enjoy a slice of coffee cake. Especially when served with a sweet glaze, coffee cake is a great option for dessert.
