The Elvis Coffee Cake
The Elvis Coffee Cake from Anne Colagioia takes all the ingredients from the 'King of Rock and Roll's' favorite peanut butter, bacon and banana sandwich and bakes them into a rich and luscious cake. Sweet, moist, salty and very easy to prepare, if you are a bacon lover, you 'Can't Help Falling in Love' with this incredible combination of flavors. It baked in my 10 inch dutch oven for 30 minutes with 10 coals around the base of the oven and 20 top. After 15 minutes you may have to move some of the briquettes from the center of the lid to prevent the cake from browning too quickly. I couldn't wait for the cake to cool and glazed it while the bacon and cake were still warm, it was to die for. So put on your 'Blue Suede Shoes', fire up your coals and try this fantastic cake, I guarantee with one bite you'll be 'All Shook Up' and going back for seconds!
