Chopped cranberries and orange peel give this coffee cake bursts of tart flavor, but a cream cheese layer on top sweetens it nicely. It's so lovely, you'll want to serve it when company comes. -Nancy Roper, Etobicoke, Ontario

I can't tell you how many times I've made this delicious coffee cake! Sometimes I bake it in two 8x8-inch pans and freeze one for my hubby and I to enjoy at a later date. (45-50 min. at 350 degrees)

This sound absolutely devine, but I have a question. I have to do a brunch the Saturday after Thanksgiving and am wondering if I can make this ahead and freeze it for the brunch? Has anyone tried freezing it?

I made this recipe 2 weeks ago and it turned out GREAT! As for saugurke's review on 11.29.10... the problem was not the cranberries, odds are your baking soda and baking powder wasn't fresh. This is why it did not rise. Follow the recipe amounts and it will turn out.

My entire family thoroughly enjoyed this cake - even my Dad, who is a finicky eater! I would definitely make this again. I highly recommend it.

I would make it again! It has a great taste.The only thing was,that the first layer of the cake did not rise.Maybe I used too many cranberries.The next time I will use less and add 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

Would make it again but oh my goodness I shouldn't!!!! I think it lasted about 10 minutes. Excellent and because the cake is on the bottom, not so fussy as regular cheescake!! MMMMMM

Excellent! Texture was beautiful and tasted divine! The blend of orange and cranberry with the smoothness of the creamcheese was wonderful. Easy to make too!
