I thought the cake part was very delicious. The filling was a bit too tart for me. I used this for the filling 8 oz of cream cheese, 4 tblsps of confectioner's sugar, 1 tblsp of water. After blending together I reserved a 1/4 c of the filling. After baking the cake. I mixed 2 - 3 tblsps of water with the reserved filling, It should be the consistency of elmer's glue. Use this to drizzle over the top of the cake. It is then a truly lovely and scrumptious dish!

Great coffeecake recipe. I used yogurt instead of sour cream and it looked as good as it tasted. My family enjoyed it very much especially the creamy filling. I will make it again for next family gatherings.
great great my husband does not really like coffee cake but this one he gave 2 thumbs up
The cake part of this recipe is delicious - I used White Lily self-rising flour and it was so smooth, moist and flavorful. My picky kids loved it. The filling has too much lemon juice and not enough sugar, so it comes out too tangy for my taste. When I make this again, I will probably put at least 8 oz of cream cheese, 1 tsp vanilla, an egg and 1/2 cup sugar for the filling. With the right filling, this recipe will be a 5 star. I also used a bundt pan and skipped the topping, but made a vanilla glaze and sprinkled with slivered almonds. I might try it in a loaf next time. Thanks for a great recipe!
I made it for our residents at a long term care center, I am making a cupcake version for our Mother's Day Luncheon, looking forward to seeing the results.
This is a delicious cake! It's rich and moist. I had to substitute walnuts for pecans. The next time I make it, I will definitely increase the cream cheese to 6 or 8 ounces. A wonderful cake with a hot cup of tea or coffee!
