        I made a Ina Garten's Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Streusel topping.Very good,bakes in tube pan.Very forgiving recipe also.I forgot to add the brown sugar to streusel mix,had already layered first part when I realized what I did sooooo I figured I'd add it to 2nd part and instead of just sprinkling on top I swirled it altogether and it came out ok.Didn't have a pronounced line across but that didn't matter.It was very good and each day it got more moist.Next time I make this I will definitely make one day and not cut till the next day.We always have coffee on the porch every day with some kin folks and I got a lot of good compliments on it.Good part was it uses everything you already have in your pantry.

          I had some pumpkin left from pumpkin roll so I found a recipe for Pumpkin Bars on KAF site but I made it into a cake instead of bars.It was so good I used 2 8 inch pans and the recipe called for adding golden raisins and some chips but I didn't add those.The cake had a good spicy flavor of pumpkin and the texture was great.The longer the cake sat the better it was.Iced with my own recipe of cream cheese icing.I also didn't add nuts as called for on top I love pecans but my husband doesn't so I omitted that.If you want a truly fall tasting cake try this.

                              These Cherry Dessert Cake Bars are so easy to make and they taste wonderful. Make them for dessert and serve with ice cream or have them with coffee. RECIPE HERE>> http://bit.ly/2bCdJaY I made these Cherry Coffee Cake Bars and they were really good and quick,Made them in under 10 minutes and baked only 30 minutes.I don't use many cake mixes any more but I really liked this.This is all I baked this week.We had tropical storm winds and rain this week,we've been really blessed no damage and the power never went out for us.Lots of people all around us had big pine trees in their yards and some through their homes and many are still without power.Sugar our american bulldog of 11 years died yesterday and we are saddened with that.Sugar was my husbands right hand so he is lost.She was part of our family.

                                  I read that also.Was always said if you salt them it'll take longer to cook.I always salted mine anyways.
