"Plain fresh bread, its crust shatteringly crisp. Sweet cold butter. There is magic in the way they come together in your mouth to make a single perfect bite."--Ruth Reichl

Personal Notes:
The original name of this is Ruth Lyons Coffee Cake. We changed it to Leap Year Coffee Cake back in the 90's. I made it on Leap Day for the kids and somehow that became it's new name! I got the recipe from Aunt Kathy in 1992 when she made it for me one day when I visited her house in Amelia, Ohio.
