Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake - Subscriber Sunday #115 - Light, Creamy and Delicious!

Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake 2 1/4 cups flour 3/4 cup plus 1/4 cup sugar 1 1/2 sticks butter, melted 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 3/4 cup sour cream 1 teaspoon almond extract 2- 8 ounce packages of cream cheese 9 or 10 ounce jar raspberry preserves, slightly heated so it pours 1/2 cup sliced almonds Preheat oven to 350°. Use a non-stick spray on the bottom and sides of a 9-inch or 10-inch springform pan, or any 9-inch or 10-inch round cake pan that is at least 2 inches deep. In a large bowl, combine the flour and 3/4 cup of sugar. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture forms medium to large crumbles. Remove one cup of the crumb mixture, placing it in a small bowl along with the sliced almonds. Gently toss them together and set aside for the crumb topping. To the remaining crumb mixture add the baking powder, baking soda, salt, ONE of the eggs, the sour cream, and the almond extract. Beat until well combined. Spread this batter evenly over the bottom and 2 inches up the sides of the prepared springform pan. (You might have to take a minute or two to manipulate the batter up the sides of the pan.) Blend together the cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, and the remaining egg until smooth and creamy. Pour evenly over the batter in the bottom of the pan. Carefully pour the slightly heated preserves over the cream cheese filling and spread gently. Sprinkle the crumb/almond mixture over the top of the preserves. Bake at 350° for 45 to 55 minutes. Cool completely before slicing. Serves 12 to 16. CONTACT INFORMATION: Come Sit At My Table P.O. Box 1041 Mt.
