Danish Coffee Cake

Danish Coffee Cake This is a pastry that is made year round, and is absolutely amazing. It has an almond flavored glaze and is flaky and perfect for breakfast, dessert or just to have around when you need something sweet. It’s great for any occasion, as well. A family favorite in our house, especially when we have family over for the holidays Ingredients  Coffee Cake Ingredients Base layer    1 cup flour  1 tablespoon water 1/2 cup butter (cold) *cutting the butter up and then putting the pieces in the freezer for about 15 minutes helps the butter pieces stay cold, resulting in a good flaky layer Directions  Combine ingredients with a pastry blender (like you would be making a pie crust) *If you do not have a pastry blender, you can use two knives and cut the butter into the flour drizzling in the water* Top layer 1 cup water 1 cup flour  1/2 cup butter  3 eggs  1/2 teaspoon almond extract   Directions  Preheat oven to 350 degrees  Top Heat water and butter in a saucepan. Bring to boil
