White Chocolate-Macadamia Coffee Cake Recipe
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts, divided
1 cup (6 ounces) white chocolate morsels, divided
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup uncooked regular oats
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
PREPARATION:
Beat 1/2 cup butter and shortening at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add 1 cup sugar, beating well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition.
Combine 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt; add to butter mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at low speed until blended after each addition. Stir in flavorings, 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, and 1/2 cup white chocolate morsels. Pour batter into a greased and floured 9" by 3" springform pan.
Combine remaining 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, brown sugar, oats, 1/4 cup butter and remaining 1/4 cup flour; stir until crumbly. Sprinkle oat mixture over batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Run a knife between cake and pan to release cake; remove sides of pan, and cool on wire rack.
Place remaining 1/2 cup white chocolate morsels in a small heavy-duty zip top plastic bag. Seal bag. Dip bag in very hot water 2 to 3 minutes or until morsels melt. Remove bag from water; snip a tiny hole in 1 corner of bag. Drizzle white cholate over coffee cake.
