Pumpkin Coffee Cake.....

I wanted to share this pumpkin recipe before the holiday. Amongst my dearest family and friends, it has been every bit as loved as pumpkin pie and is also great to have in the morning with coffee if you have overnight guests! It is a Sour Cream Pumpkin Coffeecake. This dessert will be great for Thanksgiving or for Christmas - because nobody wants the "pumpkin recipes" to end. I guarantee your loved ones will want seconds!

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and Enjoy! ~Cheryl
