Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 20 pieces Chocolate kisses
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square baking pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the batter, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and brown sugar to create the filling.
Spread half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
Place the chocolate kisses evenly across the cinnamon-sugar layer, pressing them slightly into the batter.
Spread the remaining batter over the chocolate kisses, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the coffee cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
