This coffee cake is AMAZING. It's so moist, and it has great flavor. I made the following changes: I used low fat cream cheese, I left out the almond extract, and I didn't use the dried fruit. I left out the fruit because it seemed like other reviewers didn't use it, but I'll probably add it next time to if the coffee cake is even better that way (if that's possible). My new favorite...thanks for sharing!

Excellent coffee cake! I am usually not a huge fan of coffee cake, but this was wonderful. I didn't have almond extract, and so omitted it, as well as dried fruit; and I also used salted butter, but it turned out wonderful. I also took the advice of others and doubled the topping. So moist and fluffy!

Extremely moist, the cream cheese adds so much flavor and richness it is almost sinful. Dense and light at the same time! The batter alone is addictive- like cheesecake for breakfast. I have made with dried apricots and pecans as well and DH has requested apple- you can't go wrong with this delicious coffee cake. 30 minutes was not quite done...Took 35 minutes for me.

I love this coffee cake and I have made it several times. Each time, I have left out the dried cherries, personal choice. The cake is moist, flavorful and light. Not a crumb ever goes to waste. Coffee cake is always great to have on hand when you have company in the house. This coffee cake will be around my house a lot.
