This is such an elegant-looking coffee cake and it is definitely very rich and yummy. I actually think it tastes more like a pound cake than a coffee cake, though. Still, it will definitely impress your guests; they will think you have worked all day on this. I especially love the almond flavoring. I think it would also be wonderful with some sweetened fresh berries on top.
