This was a really easy coffee cake to make and it had great texture and flavor. I used chopped, frozen rhubarb and frozen blueberries. My family loved it and it didn't last very long. I'm adding this to my "keeper" file and will make it again and again.

I've made this recipe often over the past few years. It always gets rave reviews, and people asking for the recipe. I like to use Turbinado sugar in the topping, which adds a sweet crunch. I've also switched to using canola oil instead of shortening in the cake, and can't tell the difference. The glaze drizzle gives it a very "professional" appearance.

This is an awesome recipe! I made this for a church function and got rave reviews! There is just something about a down to Earth, old-fashioned, coffee cake that surpasses any frosted cake out there. The recipe is easy to follow. It's not pretentious, just the perfect cake for church. Try it, you'll like it!
