      Although I think reading the ingredients wasn't her favorite part, I think in one of her videos she didn't wanted to read the ingredients and you could hear the director telling her "Say it". But I believe these are in fact her favorite recipes since she wrote the book, so all of them are her favorites.

      @@RoninBoss @RoninBoss You're right, but I think when GM first started it genuinely used to be her favorite part.
      Saying that, glad she is now doing things on her terms, never liked how stressed she became over the overtly caricaturistic turn of the series.

    I just made it, it’s one of the softest cakes with the most delicate crumb texture I’ve ever made. Mind you,I’m French and we don’t usually cream the butter with sugars and then alternate wet and dry mixtures, so this was a nice thing to try.
    I would definitely advise to get the strongest brew you can get your hands on, and maybe double the quantity of ribbon or double the amount of coffee crystals you add to it so that the flavor of that sweet sweet ribbon shines through.
    I’m gonna leave you now, I have an entire cake to eat by myself (I told my boyfriend I took half of the cake to my colleagues, it’s not true, I ate half of the cake in a day).

    I'm a "once in a blue moon" type of baker and let me say, this was so easy to follow and fun to make. I halved the recipe, which fit perfectly in a standard loaf pan. I also used a hand mixer instead. It resulted in the softest/fluffiest cake I've every had! Definitely adding this to the recipes arsenal!

    i made this and it turned out amazing!
    a few notes:
    - i didn’t have sour cream at home so i used yogurt + a tiny bit of vinegar instead, and i didn’t notice any strange variations in texture or taste.
    - i halved the crumb topping because i didn’t want the cake to be too sweet, and there was just enough for it to still add to the taste and texture of the cake.
    - for people that don’t like the taste of coffee, the amount of coffee in this coffee cake wasn’t overpowering at all. imo the addition of instant coffee helped enhance the overall flavor.
    i will definitely be making this again! would highly recommend :)

    The cake has a lovely feathery light texture, while the crumb provides a wonderful contrasting crunch (I mixed in chopped pecans).

    In Ireland, if your order Coffee Cake it will always be coffee flavoured cake. Usually a moist coffee sponge (sometimes with walnuts, never spices) and a coffee (almost cappachino like) buttercream frosting.

    Thanks Claire for this great recipe! I made it last night. The cake is very soft and fluffy, and full of coffee and cinnamon flavor. Soooooo good!! It’s easy enough to follow your steps and bake it at home with a hand-held mixer. It’s also super fun and relaxing to mix butter, flour and sugar with fingers, haha!!

    I baked this cake the other day and it is definitely going to be my go-to coffee cake! I baked a 9x13 pan full of cake and I was blown away by how well this cake can be frozen. I cut the cake into 9" long pieces and put them in the freezer in ziplock bags. To thaw it, I just remove the pieces from the ziplock bags and cut 9" long pieces into smaller pieces, and leave them to thaw on the counter. They taste just as soft as the day I baked them.

    Made this but halved the recipe baked in an 8-inch square pan because it's only me and my husband. Even when it was halved it needed a full 45 minutes to bake for the center to set. Baked another one because I had the idea of replacing the spices in the ribbon and crumb with cocoa powder, and replaced the coffee granules with cocoa with about 1 tablespoon extra water for the brewed coffee. I crushed the instant coffee in a mortar and pestle and mixed it with the cocoa to combine the flavors. Voila! Mocha coffee cake! I also didn't halve the ribbon ingredients and it was so good that way. If I were to make the full 13x9 inch cake I'd make it a mocha and double the ribbon.

I wonder if she remembers how to make it, she made everything from memory back then and has forgotten alot :(
