A Cyber Party with Real Cake

Some friends in Iowa were getting together this morning to eat coffeecake and visit. They posted the coffeecake recipe on facebook, and invited any of us WAY too far away, to bake a cake, pour some coffee, and enjoy "virtually." So I did! With a little help from my computer:

A yummy pot of coffee, in the trusty coffee press:

Whipping up the batter:

Sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon:

The delicious result! Thanks for a great recipe, Liz!

Liz's Coffeecake:

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp. baking powder

Stir together with a wisk. Then add:

One egg, in a 1 cup pitcher -- after cracking the egg into it, fill it with milk to the 1 cup line.

Pour into 8x8 baking pan. Top generously with brown sugar and cinnamon (and nuts or coconut, if you like). Bake about 30 minutes at 350.
