I was intrigued by the cardamom coffee cake. Also, Adam is a coffee cake fanatic. Denise's post was really helpful. I had green Cardamom pods (which I use in a favorite Indian Dish). I opened those and took out the seeds. I then crushed the seeds with my morter and pestle. They were very fragrant. I was a little afraid to use a whole Tablespoon (or 2, I cannot remember what it called for). Because Denise said hers was not very flavorful I added the full amount. Also, I added a whole Tablespoon more cinnamon. We thought the coffee cake was delicious. We definitely liked the cardamom flavor. Adam could not believe how much cake it made. If I ever have a brunch I will include this in the spread.

It tasted great!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear about the changes you made. I'm starting to realize that I like more spice in my foods than Molly does. I'll have to keep this in mind for future recipes.
