This is a perfect casual dessert—and hopefully there is a piece left over to have with a cup of tea the next morning! The recipe calls for a cake mix and yeast, which is rather unusual, but the results are wonderful.—Gail Buss, Westminster, Maryland

I've used this recipe from time to time and have even substituted different flavors of pie filling for the cherry filling! I DID add 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg to the topping mixture! All in all, this recipe is wonderful! Whenever I get an opportunity, I buy the yeast and pie filling + yellow cake mix or other cake mix to fit in with the flavor or the pie filling! It's a recipe which I have enjoyed preparing and have gotten compliments on!

This is my favorite coffee cake. I can make it so quickly and when I take it somewhere, it gets devoured.
