I was pleased with how this coffee cake turned out. It had a moist interior. The spices complemented the raisins so the flavor was similar to a nice raisin bread. Next time I make it, I'll likely increase the sugar to 3/4 cup and the butter to 1/2 cup. It was sweet and lovely, but not quite as indulgent as I prefer. But all in all, I was pretty happy with this coffee cake. (This recipe was submitted in 2003. It was tested and photographed in May 2016.)

How To Make A Raisin Coffee Cake
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, 2/3 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and allspice. Next, add the milk, egg, melted butter and vanilla. Mix well, stirring in the raisins as you do so.
Turn into a greased and floured 8-inch layer cake pan.
Mix together 1/4 cup of sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over the top of the cake.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until it passes the toothpick test.

Cooking Note From Mr Breakfast
I made a vanilla glaze to drizzle over the baked and cooled coffee cake. I whisked together about 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 2 Tablespoons milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Instead of an 8-inch cake pan, I used a 7 x 4 1/2-inch pan and a 4-inch round pan to make 2 smaller coffee cakes. My cooking time was 26 minutes.
