Copycat Starbucks Coffee Cake

This Copycat Starbucks Coffee Cake may just be better than the real thing!

Easter is sneaking up on me this year – it’s next Sunday!

One of my favorite things about Easter is Easter Brunch/Breakfast.  Because of our church schedule this year (we go from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.) we will be having breakfast before church and Easter Dinner after church.

Whether we are having Easter breakfast or Easter brunch – a good coffeecake is a must-have on the menu.

This is a simple and easy coffeecake that uses a yellow cake mix.  I don’t know how it compares to the real Starbucks Coffee Cake because I have never had it.  If you give this recipe a try and you’ve had the real thing – let me know how it compares.

Starbucks Coffee Cake will be part of our menu for Easter breakfast.  I’ll share what’s for Easter dinner on Thursday!
