Pumpkin Streusel Coffee Cake

My granddaughters came over to spend the day with me today. 

We love to 'play' in the kitchen, so we did a little baking. 

Pumpkin Streusel Coffee Cake was the recipe picked for today.
Trust me...this moist, delicious cake tastes as great as it looks!

Is this too much for your family? 
Cut out what you need now and place the rest in the freezer.
When cake has cooled, cut each piece and place on a cookie sheet an inch or two apart. Freeze the cake until it's just frozen..about one hour.
Place cake in a freezer container or freezer bags and put back in freezer.
When ready to eat...fold a paper towel in quarters. Place paper towel on a small plate. Place piece of cake on the paper towel, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge. In the morning, pop it in the microwave for a few seconds...approx 10 - 15....and there you go...hot coffee cake!
