Aunt Tracy's Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Aunt Tracy’s Sour Cream Coffee Cake is the heart of every family breakfast. No visit from her is complete without that warm, cinnamon-swirled slice of nostalgia. It’s my go-to whenever I’m hosting, though I’ll admit—mine never quite turns out as perfectly as hers. Still, one bite brings back the best memories of cozy mornings, laughter around the table, and the unmistakable taste of home.
