Everything's Bigger in Texas...Especially The Flavor!

Introducing Texas Coffee Cake

 

My husband said this is the best thing I've ever baked. The butter flavor  sinks throughout the cake. The brown sugar and cinnamon mixture in the middle really makes this the perfect coffee cake. Also, you can sprinkle the icing with chopped pecans for some added flavor and to just look pretty.
