This really was The Best Coffee Cake ever.  This recipe came from Pioneer Woman’s site here: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/06/the-best-coffee-cake-ever/

Pay attention to her subtle warnings about using a LARGE pan, this is huge.  And it’s not for those without 19 different bowls, mixers and large amounts of butter laying around.

But, in the end it was worth it, the best coffee cake ever!
