S’MORES COFFEE CAKE
a recipe by Susan Whetzel from The S’mores Cookbook

For the Cake

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup graham cracker crumbs
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the Filling

  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

For the Simple Marshmallow Syrup

    I made this today as a weekend treat, and it is nearly gone already. Granted, I made half the recipe and cooked it in the loaf pan, but my family of four still polished it off. 🙂 Thank you for the delicious cake, as usual!
