Our 2023 Recipe of the Year journey started with a simple goal: to perfect the classic coffee cake. After a few months of tinkering, we landed on a failproof recipe that marries the most tender cake (thank you, reverse creaming) with the crispiest crumbs. Watch how to make it step-by-step. But instead of a single recipe, we created 10. We’ll be revealing new versions throughout the year, so don't pick a favorite just yet — there’s lots more coffee cake on the way.
