Chai Coffee Cake (Redux)

¤ Guest Post ¤


For my inaugural post, I thought it apropos to start with this Chai Coffee Cake, since this blog (and its creator) were the inspiration behind my baking it for a daylong marathon Thanksgiving. I second the original post; mine was almost gone by the time dinner hit the table.

It also lent quite a nice aroma to the kitchen.

I used Tartlette's modification of layering the topping and the cake batter.


My only qualm was that the freshly ground cardamom I used overpowered the other, packaged spices in the cake; I might in the future use all fresh or all packaged spices to negate that effect. Despite the accentuated cardamom, it still came out quite tasty.
