One-Serving Cinnamon Coffee Cake

So, amongst us friends… I’ll tell you, today is my birthday eve!

I’ve always loved my birthday and have plans to celebrate all weekend long with dear friends. In doing so, I’m sure there will be a sweet treat, which is so hard for me to resist on special occasions like this (Ahem… my blog title says it all!)

So, in honor of my birthday being tomorrow, I thought I’d share with you a one-serving coffee cake I found over at Chocolate-Covered Katie. While it is still a little indulgent, you can only have one… And in some way, I feel that’s safer!

I ate it for breakfast over the weekend, and loved every morsel of it! You should definitely try this one, y’all!
