Aunt Dolly’s Coffee Cake

In my opinion this is the best coffee cake recipe.  I can’t tell you how easy this is to make.  It tastes almost like a Drake’s but much better.  I freeze the King Hawaiian rolls and grate them for the bread.  Also, add a can of apple or peach pie filling on top to make it extra special.  Pick out the fruit so there’s not too much juice.  This freezes well, but also stays fresh for 4 to 5 days.  

Mix the ingredients on the first card in one bowl and the ingredients on the second card in another.  Pour the batter in the pan, add fruit, top with crumbs.  I line a 9 x 15 pan with parchment paper, as it makes the cake come out easier.
