Sour Cream & Cherry Coffee Cake
This cherry swirl coffee cake is a sweet addition to breakfast, brunch, snack or even dessert. 🍒
Saturday I had asked everyone on my Face book fan page to help me choose a sweet treat for our upcoming open house. All of your choices were equally yummy Glazed Lemon Bars, Mexican Wedding Cookies, Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake or a Sour Cream & Cherry Coffee Cake.
Everyone added their input, but something kept pulling me towards the Sour Cream & Cherry Coffee Cake. So that was the recipe that I decided on. I've made this coffee cake several times and it always turns out so good. If you love cherries than this coffee cake will be such a treat for you.

One thing about this recipe that is probably going to surprise you is....... this coffee cake uses a white cake mix. You really can't tell at all by the photos. I think the cake mix really gives this coffee cake the perfect sweetness, especially along with the tart from the cherries.
If cherries aren't your thing then just use a different variety of pie filling. This recipe is so easy and takes hardly any time to pull together. So for everyone who has been waiting for this recipe after my teaser photo on face book. This one's for you!

Combine with the cake mix. Spread mixture into a greased baking dish and drop the pie filling over the batter in spoonfuls.
Make sure to swirl the pie filling throughout the batter. If not the pie filling will settle in the middle.Bake for 30-40 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked through.
Test with toothpick for doneness. Cool in pan and drizzle with a simple icing if desired.
To prepare the icing blend all the ingredients together until smooth. Drizzle over coffee cake and garnish with sliced almonds.
servings 8-10
Cook's Note: To make a apple version just use apple pie filling in place of cherry pie, sprinkle some brown sugar (about 1/4 cup) and cinnamon over the pie filling before swirling, omit the slivered almonds, and use vanilla extract instead of almond for the icing. Or you can do a caramel apple pie filling and add toasted pecans and cinnamon sugar on top.
