CAN THIS ALMOND STRAWBERRY COFFEE CAKE BE MODIFIED?
I’m already thinking of all the different ways I can’t wait to modify this cake. Almond lemon ricotta before the summer ends. Maybe a maple pumpkin at the beginning of fall or a cranberry orange to celebrate the holidays. Now that I have figured out my base cake recipe–the options are endless. If you come up with your own fun flavor combos let me know! I’m seriously so amazed by how creative you all are.
I kind of love cake (and desserts) if you haven’t noticed yet. So I compiled a list of some of my favorite cake recipes from my blog.
