Cherry Coffee Cake

I found this recipe from "Lifelines", a patient newsletter published by DaVita. It looks tasty, but risky.


Ingredients


1/2 c unsalted butter; softened

2 eggs

1 c granulated sugar

1 c sour cream

1 tsp vanilla (extract?)

2 c all-purpose white flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

one 20 ounce can cherry pie filling

Preparation


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Using a mixer, cream butter, ceggs, sugar, sour cream and vanilla.

3. In separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and baking soda

4. Add dry ingredients to creamed butter misture and mix well. Pour batter into a greased 9" x 13" baking pan

5. Evenly disperse cherry pie filling over batter.

6. Bake for 40 minutes until golden brown.

Helpful Hints:


Substitute blueberry or rasberry pie filling instead of cherry if desired.

Cut into 12 servings instead of 24 if you need extra calorie.

Lower sugar options for those with diabetes include using sugar substitute for baking instead of sugar and using low-sugar cherry filling.
