Chit Chat and Dessert ---February 2012 :)

Hi Chatters,

Lavender has been having trouble with her eyes again and having a hard time being on the computer so I will try to do this as good as she does each month. I am going to be a "stand in lavender" this month and hope she is back with us soon.

This is a coffee cake that one of the quilters shared a couple weeks ago. Really good. Sorry I don't have a picture to share.

Graham Streusel Cake

2 cups graham cracker crumbs

3/4 Cup chopped nuts

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1 1/4 tsp cinnamon

3/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

1 pkg yellow cake mix

1 cup water

1/4 cup vegetable oil

3 eggs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 9X13 inch pan. Mix crumbs, nuts, brown sugar, cinnamon and butter; reserve. Blend cake mix, water, oil and eggs on low speed. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Pour half of the batter into the pan: sprinkle with half of crumb mixture. Spread remaining batter evenly over crumb mixture, sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Bake for 45-50 minutes.

Drizzle with glaze: 1cup powdered sugar and 1 to 2 tablespoons water.

Get better soon lavender, WE MISS YOU {#emotions_dlg.wub}
