For the fifth week of genius hour, I decided to make coffee cake. Coffee cake doesn’t actually contain coffee, it was given its name because it is usually eaten with coffee. I had never made coffee cake before, so my goal for the week was to make a batch that tasted good and looked how it was supposed to. I believe that I achieved this goal because I got good feedback from classmates. They both rated the taste 10/10 and said the texture was good. While I was making it, the batter didn’t looks right to me, but my grandma said that that was how it was supposed to look. Baking will increase my patience and my problem solving skills in the future. I have enjoyed this genius hour so far and I look forward to continuing.
Here’s some pictures of the process:
This is the batter. It didn’t look right to me because it had the texture of cool whip and wasn’t runny like other cake batter.
Here is the cake before it was baked. The chunks on top are the brown sugar topping.
Madi, I must say you have impressed my with each week's creation. Baking can be a hard task, because there are so many things that can go wrong throughout the process. Keep up the good work! The coffee cake was delicious and I really wish I had some coffee to enjoy with it ;).
