SUPER recipe! I've made it twice for us, twice for others and everyone LOVES it. It IS best warm out of the oven, but still very, very good cold. Be careful to just lightly press the topping, otherwise it turns hard during baking (it's still yummy, though). Also, if you double the recipe (in 9x13 pan), you do NOT need to increase the cooking time — I cooked 50 min & it browned too much on the bottom. Next time I doubled it, I cooked it 40 min and it was fine. Thanks for sharing this!

OH! Yum, Michelle! I was FINALLY able to make this today. Couldn't really afford fresh mixed berries, but finally I was able to get a frozen,sweetened mix of 4 types - strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. I've had this in my cookbook for a LONG time. Me and The El Gordo had some for lunch. You can bet your boots I'll make it again! Thanks From The MEP

A lusciously delicious coffee cake and very dangerous - it's hard to stop eating it! I used fresh raspberries and blueberries tossed with 1 Tbsp sugar, since the raspberries were a little too tart. (tip: if using sugar, mix with berries just before adding to batter). I used dark brown sugar for the topping, and cut cold butter into it. Of course, with the dark brown sugar, the topping could not turn "golden brown," as the recipe indicates, so I baked it slightly more than 40 minutes, since I used an 8x8 pan instead of a 9x9. It came out great. Thank you, Michelle, I definitely will be making this again!

The aroma was very enticing. The final product ...very morish! I substituted strawberry yogurt for the milk and used a combination of blueberries and raspberries. Definitely will keep this one - may try to use brandied peaches instead of berries next time.

Easy, great recipe. For the fruit I used a bag of Safeway (store brand) mixed berries (rasp,blue,black,straw).

This was fantastic! It made the entire house smell like a bakery while it was in the oven. I used a bag of frozen mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries) that I thawed and then drained a bit of the juice off. The remaining juice seeped into the bottom layer of the cake and made it look really nice. This is going into my recipe collection and I plan on making it often in the future!

This cake was amazing! The only reason I'm giving it four stars instead of five is because I thought there was too much cinnamon in the streusel topping and it overpowered everything else. Next time (and there WILL be a next time!), I'll cut back to probably 1 tsp of cinnamon. Like many reviewers, I cut cold butter into the streusel, rather than melting it. My only other change to the recipe was to substitute half of the butter in the cake (1/4 cup) for unsweetened applesauce, just to make it a little healthier. I don't think anyone would have known, though-- the cake was moist, rich, and very delicious!

I made this last night and used the new Splendra for baking instead of sugar as i had some frozen fruit in freezer i wanted to use up...it was very simple and turned out great...you would never know it was made without sugar...

I just got done eating a piece of this and had to review it right away. MMMMmmmm...this is so good. I misread and added 3/4 tsp of cinnamon to the batter, still excellent. Served it warm right out the oven with a cup of coffee. Reminds me of a cobbler. I used a bag of frozen berries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. Thanks Michelle.
