Cream Cheese Coffee Cake



We are headed to the Old Neighborhood to pick up a few of our Cream Cheese Coffee Cakes.
This is a recipe of a great one from Taste of Home..

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour

  • FILLING:
  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons Spice Islands® pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • GLAZE:
  • 2-1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon Spice Islands® pure vanilla extract
  • Toasted sliced almonds, optional

Directions

  • In a small saucepan, combine the sour cream, sugar, butter and salt. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 5-10 minutes or until well blended. Cool to room temperature.
  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sour cream mixture and eggs. Beat until smooth. Gradually stir in flour to form a soft dough (dough will be very soft). Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Punch dough down. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead 5-6 times. Divide into fourths. Roll each piece into a 12-in. x 8-in. rectangle. In a large bowl, combine the filling ingredients until well blended. Spread over each rectangle to within 1 in. of edges.
  • Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams and ends to seal. Place seam side down on greased baking sheets. Cut six X's on top of loaves. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla; drizzle over warm loaves. Sprinkle with almonds if desired. Store in the refrigerator. Yield: 20-24 servings.
