We have lots of holiday traditions at our house. Tradition runs deep at the Wilkes household and I have learned that even though my children are now young adults I can’t ignore those long standing childhood traditions. Some of our favorites include our Breakfast with Santa, Christmas Eve fondue dinner and Shepherds Night.

Favorite Coffee Cake
Food is an important part of those traditions and this Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake is one 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.

How to make Raspberry Cream Cheese Coffee Cake
- Blend your flour and sugar with butter until a crumbly mixture forms. Set aside one cup of this mixture.
- Mix in remaining dry ingredients, sour cream, extract and egg.
- Spread this mixture on the bottom and up the sides of a springform pan. This recipe works best in a springform pan as it is easier to remove and serve the coffee cake.
- Fill with cream cheese mixture.
- Add a layer of raspberry jam or favorite flavor.
- Sprinkle top with remaining crumb mixture combined with almonds.
- Bake at 350 for 45-55 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

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

Can This Be Made Ahead of Time?
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.
