Sour Cream Coffee Cake
From A Taste of the Taber Cookbook
Cake:
3/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup yogurt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping:
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9 x 9-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar. Sift in the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in the yogurt, sour cream, eggs and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix together the topping ingredients. Pour the batter into the pan and sprinkle with the topping. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until a fork inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan and cut into squares.
Makes 9 servings.
