Coffee cake with a layer of creamy cream cheese and preserves. Topped with an almond crumb. To say this is delicious is an understatement. How could it not be delicious with cream cheese and preserves in a coffee cake!?
I choose raspberry preserves for this coffee cake, but you could use strawberry or really any kind of preserves. Preserves do not have seeds in them and that makes it ideal for this recipe.
