"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Saw this recipe in Better Homes and Gardens magazine, issue November 1987. They called it "Choose-Your-Fruit Coffee Cake". I baked it and brought it into work. Our marketing manager told me it was the best coffee cake he ever had. I made it with fresh raspberries. It's a wonderful coffee cake.
