Outfit Coffee time

Outfit Coffee time


Buenos días chicos! Hoy os traigo el look que llevé para salir con mis amigas. Antes de llegar, aprovechamos para tomar 
un café y sacar estas fotos. Era el día siguiente a mi cumple así que iba como niña con zapatos nuevos! Estrenaba mi
nueva sudadera gris con mensaje en terciopelo y un bolso saco en color negro. Espero que os guste el look y feliz
fin de semana a todos!

Good morning guys! Today I show you the look that I wore to go out with my friends. Before arriving, we take for coffee
 in Starbucks and take these pictures. It was the day after my birthday, I premiered my new gray sweatshirt with velvet message and a black handbag. Hope you like the look and happy weekend everyone!

Our New Coffee Table

Our New Coffee Table


We recently found ourselves in need of a small coffee table in our new digs and thought of this old wood crate; when and where it was acquired no one remembers.

I got a 4x4 and cut off 4 4" chunks and made some legs and lo and behold, we have a new coffee table. We rather like it.

remember good old cracker jacks?

Now, what were ribbon corn confections?

Oatmeal Raisin Cookie COFFEE CAKE

Oatmeal Raisin Cookie COFFEE CAKE


Yes, you read that right.....this is a coffee cake filled with yumminess with all the delicious-ness of an oatmeal raisin cookie.  Hands down one of the BEST coffee cakes I have made in a LONG time. Of course it doesnt hurt that I am a sucker for oatmeal raisin cookies along with any type of coffee cake.  Put these two sweets together and you have a master piece I tell ya!


There are some recipes that I make and after putting in my time, energy and taste buds towards the finished product I decide not to make the recipe again....and then there are recipes that put me over the edge with happiness with all the applauds of yumminess ?from myself and those that I share it with.  I will definitely be making this recipe again. I recommend it to all of you to do the same.  Especially if you are a coffee cake and an oatmeal raisin cookie fan.....its a LOVELY combination of both.

I also really liked how there was a thick ribbon of cinnamon and brown sugar goodness that ran through the middle of this cake.  Raisins and chopped nuts studded the middle of the cake too making it a true oatmeal cookie delight.



Because Valentines Day is just around the corner I couldnt resist making this coffee cake in a heart shaped pan.


Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Coffee Cake
(recipe found on the lovely and oh so scrumptious blog,  A Whisk and a Prayer)

Cake Ingredients:

2 cups AP flour

2/3 cup oats (regular or quick cooking)

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

2 eggs

1 cup milk

1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp vanilla extract

Filling/Topping Ingredients:

1/4 cup AP flour

1 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup butter, cut into small chunks

1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

2/3 cup raisins

1/3 cup chopped walnuts (or nut of your choice)

Directions:

1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease a 9" round (or heart shaped) spring form pan.

2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.  Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. 

4.  Add in 1/3 of flour mixture to the butter/sugar/egg mixture.  Then mix in 1/2 the milk, lemon juice and vanilla extract followed by another 1/3 of the flour mixture.  End with remaining wet ingredients and then the last of the flour.  Set aside as you make the filling/topping.

5. Make the filling/topping -  In a medium bowl combine flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.  Add in 1/4 cup butter chunks.  Using the back of a fork or a pastry cutter blend in butter until mixture resembles coarse sand.

6. Pour 1/2 of the cake batter into prepared pan.  Then sprinkle 1/2 of the filling/topping mixture.  Sprinkle over filling/topping raisins and chopped nuts.  Pour remaining cake batter over raisins and chopped nuts.  Top everything off with the remaining filling/topping mixture.

7. Place coffee cake into oven and bake for a good 45-50 minutes (my heart shaped cake took almost a full hour to bake), or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool cake on a wire rack until it comes to room temperature and then remove sides of spring form pan.

So, so numilcious!!!



Happy Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Coffee Cake Baking!
