With the weekend here, and the mounds of homework piling up, theres nothing better than a delicious study-break snack. This is a recipe I found while stumbling my way across some internet recipe sites, and sure to fill those hungry minds -and tummys.
This coffeecake is an amazing recipe with very little ingriedients. Even as a student, I have at least half of those items here already, so a quick and cheap run to the grocery store is enough to fill your house with the sweet smell of baking!

This recipe is a little bit more, should we say involved. Not hard, but it consist of three different elements. You have the cake part, the pumpkin filling, and the streusel,
You layer half the cake batter, half the streusel,
,
and then that pumpkin filling,
Then the rest of cake and streusel..
A little time consuming but so worth it! I made it the night before I wanted it and then baked it in the morning.
I took a nice warm Sour Cream Pumpkin Coffee Cake to work to the delight of my coworkers. They all gave it a thumbs up!
You have to try this one!
