The Bountiful Brunch Buffet Party
Sunday brunch is a wonderful way to enjoy friends or family. Breakfast, which is usually a rushed event during the week, can be leisurely enjoyed. Cereal is replaced by hot dishes and freshly baked goods. You can enjoy a few cups of coffee or better yet, a sparkling glass of champagne. This is the time to splurge on breakfast to be enjoyed inside or out. We've created a palette that will appeal to both those seeking familiar a home-style breakfast and those seeking a little flare. So invite a few friends or the family over for a relaxing Sunday morning and have a mimosa on us!

Cinnamon Kahlua Coffee Cake
Number of Servings: 12
Serving Dishes: Platter
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 55 - 60
(for bundt cake pan)
Can You Double: No
(this recipe already is)
Can You Freeze: No
- 2 boxes of Pillsbury Cinnamon Swirl quick bread/coffee cake
(or similar product) - 4 eggs
- 1 c water
- 1/2 c Kahlua
- 1/2 c sour cream
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour (don’t skip this step or the cake will stick and pull apart) bottom of a bundt cake pan. Combine quick bread mix, eggs, water, kahlua and sour cream in a large bowl. Beat with a spoon or mixer until smooth. Pour half of the batter into the bundt pan. Sprinkle all of the swirl mix (cinnamon and sugar mixture). Pour the remaining batter over the swirl mix; spread carefully to cover. Bake approximately 55 - 60 minutes or until the loaf springs back when gently poked with a finger. While cake is baking, make the glaze.
Note: if you don’t have a bundt pan, use a loaf pan for each bread. Adjust baking time according to box mix.
Glaze
- 3/4 c powdered sugar
- 2 T softened butter
- 1 T Kahlua
Beat until smooth. Spoon over lukewarm cake. It will melt slightly. You will have leftover glaze. Cool cake in pan on cooling rack, 15 minutes. Loosen edges with a knife or metal spatula; remove from pan. Serve warm or cool. Store leftovers tightly wrapped. If you are going to use loaf pans, you do not need to make a second batch of the glaze, you will have enough if you use the recipe provided. Let the loaf cool slightly in the pan, then turn over onto the serving platter. Spoon glaze over the lukewarm loaf, let cool completely and then slice.
