Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake is a recipe I make every Christmas and it wouldn’t be Christmas without it.  It is always a big hit at any Christmas breakfast or brunch I serve it at. It has been a family and friend favorite for over 20 years. 

One thing I particularly love about this coffee cake is the almond flavor in the – so yummy!  The middle filled with a cream cheese mixture and then topped with raspberry jam and almonds.

This is a great make ahead dish and it can be kept in the refrigerator for a few days before serving. Be sure to keep any leftovers refrigerated too.
