Coffee cake

Coffee cake

1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup milk
2 eggs – mix one at a time
2 1/2 cups of flour
2 teaspoons baking powder – heaping

bake 20 minutes

topping

1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon – heaping nuts

This recipe is rather vague, but I made it last night and it works just fine. I put the topping on prior to baking which I’m sure is implied but want to make sure everyone understands the concept of coffee cake topping. Also I used brown sugar for the topping.

Waffles

I'm going to start with basic recipes of my grandmother. She made these often and I loved them. I remember that any extra waffles were refrigerated and then warmed in the toaster.

Waffles

3 egg yolks beaten
2 teaspoons sugar (correction added: 3 teaspoons)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup melted butter
2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups flour (correction added: 1 cup regular 1/2 cup cake)
3 egg whites – beaten stiffly
