Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake

Food and I have a LOOOOOONG standing relationship... it would be fair to say that I am a self-confessed food addict.  When I find a recipe and recommend it, it must be known that I am serious about it... and this is one of those recipes that you NEED to try.

I was watching my friend, Kristin's, video on YouTube and she linked to a recipe for a Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake and I immediately printed it out and made it this past weekend.  I love a cinnamon roll, I love a coffee cake and I especially love when a coffee cake doesn't include actual coffee.

Just in case there was any doubt on the awesomeness of the cake... see the evidence below... kind of hard to debate actual proof, right?!

Enjoy!
