I think most women want to hear, "I missed you. I was thinking about you today!" from their man at the end of a long day. Unfortunately for me, I'm not one of those women who are on the receiving end of such affection. Instead, Jason comes stomping through the living room carrying a huge chunk of Chocolate Pecan Coffee Cake, lovingly looking at it like it's the best thing in the world, while saying, "I've been thinking about THIS all day long." W.T.F? I come in second to sweets! He's lucky that I kind of like him or there would probably be hell to pay for having such a thick skull. And, I let it slide because I agree with him. The cake is think about it all day kind of good. If you want to score extra brownie points with the sweetie, serve up some chocolate pecan coffee cake on Valentine's Day.
Warm out of the oven with a cold glass of milk = pure bliss.

Where's the coffee in it? Jason drunk it? :) He did, at least, brought you a piece, yes? Hope you two get naughty for Valentines!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why they call these kinds of cakes coffee cakes. Maybe you are supposed to drink them with coffee? I dunno! No, he did not bring me a piece because he's rude. With that kind of rudeness, there will definitely not be naughty business going on for Valentines lol ;)
Deletebut then again, rudeness is usually the best of things in the naughty business :)))
DeleteYou're the leading exponent!
DeleteI get the sweets thing on Jason's behalf as I do love my sweets! But now what does Jason do for you???? Don't let me down Jason! I stuck up for you. I think Theresa wanted some diamonds...but probably power tools....wait that's me. Hope you two have a special day! Cheers.
ReplyDeleteHe did buy me Lindt truffles, so I can't be too mad ;) No diamonds please. I am not a jewelry girl. Crafting supplies would be most welcome, though!
Deletelol well if you make it he is technically making you #1 as his #1 is something you made. Hmmm, yeah that may not fly, huh?
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice way to spin it for him, but no, that doesn't fly around here lol
DeleteI love coffee cake! It's so perfect for brunch or brunch parties.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so yummy! There's nothing better than a good coffee cake, in my opinion. I can't wait to give this a try.
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to make that. I love that it uses honey. I LOVE honey in baking.

ReplyDeleteWOW this coffee cake looks delicious! The chocolate, pecans and brown sugar must make an amazing combination.
ReplyDeleteI dont think I have ever had chocolate coffee cake but by the looks of it I am missing out! I will have to get this made A.S.A.P!
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with chocolate!
ReplyDeleteWe're not huge gift givers here for Valentines Day. I do mack a special breakfast, and have chocolates setting at everyones spot at the table.
These look like a fairly healthy snack/dessert.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing, as my family has been trying to modify their diet this year.

ReplyDeleteSome things just taste so yummy it's hard to think of anything else. What a scrumptious looking chocolate pecan coffee cake. I hope you have a cheerful Valentine's Day card waiting for you tomorrow and enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really good! I love coffee cake too.
ReplyDeleteMy inlaws do a lot of brunches and this would be perfect to bring with me to the next one :)
ReplyDeleteYou come in second to sweets???? How did that happen? How could this be? He's lucky you kinda like him. ;)
ReplyDeleteI guess when you've been together almost 20 years, sweets are more exciting than your mate ;)
DeleteI love to bake with honey. I actually prefer it over sugar. This dessert is so yummy looking and the ingredients are too die for.
ReplyDeleteI can see how this would linger, lol. They do say a way to a man's heart is through his tummy. ;)
ReplyDeleteI can kinda relate. Some food are really worth thinking about the whole day!! haha
ReplyDeleteAi @ Sakura Haruka
Love love LOVE coffee cakes! This sounds scrumptious and I know someone who LOVES anything pecan who would be over the moon with this :) Yum!
ReplyDeleteIt has been years since I've made a coffee cake. Yours looks a lot moister than the ones I used to make. I think that is why they call them coffee cakes, you needed a lot of coffee to wash them down.
ReplyDeleteThis cake looks delicious! I would so love to try it!
ReplyDeleteyuuum yuuuum....look so delicious, Theresa..
