Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Bundt Cake

This is my first blog for the year of 2016 and thought sharing something sweet to start the year with cinnamon streusel coffee cake. May the new year bring us all the sweet things in life. As for now, lets talk about cake.

I wanted to bake a good coffee cake for quite sometimes until i came across of this yummy cinnamon streusel coffee cake. This moist coffee cake baked in a bundt pan is something irresistible with a delicious cinnamon sugar streusel in the center. For all the cinnamon sugar lovers just like me, this cake is definitely a craze on a dinner table after a good dinner or over an afternoon tea. Love the flavour rendered by the coffee powder and the sugar glaze compliments the texture and flavor of the cinnamon and coffee.
