No chocolate chips, but then I am not a fan of chocolate, so I won't miss them :)<br /><br />I like the sound of a strusel layer - I can't wait.<br /><br />Fingers crossed that the Big Blue Book has followed you across the pond. I can imagine your pain at what you had to leave behind. I hope that soon you can start to rebuild your life in your own home.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088355577823930786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-77479889292999552452021-04-08T22:41:18.949+01:002021-04-08T22:41:18.949+01:00Dear Grateful Reader, I did get your comment.

I wasn't even able to bring most of my clothes. A few night clothes, a couple shirts, some trousers, a winterish coat and a spring coat, the shoes I was wearing. Once I get my own place I hope to get a sewing machine and make myself a few clothes. The chocolate chips are not essential in this Jeanie, but we did always like them. I can appreciate those who don't however! You will love this cake regardless! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-27447277498708133532021-04-08T22:38:29.561+01:002021-04-08T22:38:29.561+01:00It is excellent Elizabeth.

Especially things that really mattered. I swear, I would have left all my clothes to bring back some other things. I love sour cream coffee cake and am eager to give this one a try. I'll skip the chips, though. I can do without the chocolate!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-90756561646462700072021-04-08T18:57:23.674+01:002021-04-08T18:57:23.674+01:00Never made a coffee cake that looks like this one ...Never made a coffee cake that looks like this one but it is indeed most inviting!!

Mine has the addition of 5 small bananas and uses an entire package of chocolate chips. It has the cinnamon/brown sugar/choc chip streusel in the middle and on top. Decadent. You betcha! But worth it every time.curlypowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15663256160369920564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-37324443770497399922021-04-08T09:15:17.919+01:002021-04-08T09:15:17.919+01:00I loved glimpsing your hand-written recipe, Marie....I loved glimpsing your hand-written recipe, Marie. I once framed, between two pieces of glass, the hand-written recipe my grandmother used to bake my mom's wedding cake in August 1938. I gave it to my niece along with baking utensils as a wedding shower gift. I also included the heavy red plastic flour scoop used by her paternal grandmother. Lovely little keepsakes that my niece hung on the wall. I'm going to make your jam squares today. I have a jar of cherry or wild blueberry jam from Bonne Maman to choise from. Have a good day, my friend. I'm sure you will find your Big Blue Binder when you open your boxes.
