This is a recipe from Maida Heatter, a pastry chef and cookbook author of numerous books on desserts and baking. It is called the Budapest Coffee Cake, and is from “Book of Great Desserts”. It was (is?) the most popular recipe from that book, published in 1974.

I like it because it contains cinnamon AND cocoa powder. And that there are two cups of sour cream, making it an incredibly moist cake that keeps well. And also that the streusel-type stuff in coffee cakes that is often put on top of many coffee cakes is instead baked in layers in this bundt cake. Amazing. Maida Heatter is Genius. I even bought one of her books already, and so you can count on another post of a Maida Heatter recipe real soon!

3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 Tablespoon cinnamon

To make the batter:
Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, into a large bowl.
Cream the butter in bowl of an electric stand mixer, using a paddle attachment.
Add the vanilla and sugar and beat on medium speed for a minute or two.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating each until just incorporated.
Scrape down sides of bowl, as necessary, to keep mixture smooth. Beat at high speed until mixture is light and creamy, about 1 minute.
Turn mixer to low speed. Add dry ingredients in three additions and sour cream in two additions, beating only until smooth after each addition.
Spread a thin layer of batter in bottom of prepared pan. Sometimes it’s easier to use a small spoon to drop some batter into pan, and then to smooth it together. Top with 1/3 of nut mixture. Repeat until you have 4 layers of batter into pan and smooth it together. Top layer will be batter.
Bake 50-60 minutes, or until cake tester inserted in center of cake comes clean. Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes, then turn out and reinvert on a rack.
To make glaze:
Combine powdered sugar, hot milk, and vanilla in a small bowl. Mix well, Mixture should have the consistency of a thick cream sauce. Spread wax paper underneath a cooling rack. Pour glaze over cake, letting it run down the sides, while still hot. When glaze is set, transfer cake to a serving plate.
When glaze is set, transfer cake to a serving plate. Cake may be served warm or at room temperature. Yeild: 12 servings.

Oh wow Dave, this looks fantastic! Sounds like a great cookbook. Love the layering of the streusel and the drizzled glaze. Good looking cake!

Thanks! It was tricky to slice, because it’s so soft and moist. I would’ve preferred to cool it in the freezer, but it really needs to be served warm or at room temperature. I’m discovering there is a whole world of cookbooks and authors that are pre-internet, where you can’t really just look it up online and expect a picture of the dessert. She has some recipes that other people have made, but not like Martha Stewart, or Nigella Lawson, or any others. The next recipe I’ll post about is from a restaurant in NYC that no longer exists.

I love vintage stuff too. This recipe might not be vintage, but it definitely is from a few decades before this one.

You know, you could probably leave them out, although it’s quite a large amount. I imagine that the loss of 1 cup of nuts would change the mouth feel somewhat. Or, just make something else. Or Maybe you can substitute something crunchy, like cocoa nibs?

I love this cake and have been baking it for 40 years. It’s pretty sweet so I never pour 2 cups of confectioner’s sugar worth of glaze over it. I simply dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar and it looks beautiful and tastes great.
