This one's for you, mom...

The one part of my family Christmas I couldn’t give up was the annual Swedish Christmas Coffee Cake passed down through generations on my mom’s side of the family. So, with some modifications to the recipe based on available market goods, I managed to design a Honduran version of the traditional coffee cake…and I just might say that this was one of the best…though I didn’t have the trusty electric blanket to help the dough to rise, the Honduran sunshine on my patio proved able to do the job. I delivered one of the coffee cakes to the mayor’s family, and the other one we enjoyed here on Christmas morning!
