Apple Butter Lattice Coffeecake
- 2 cups Flour
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Cream Of Tartar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 3 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 3/4 cups Milk
- 1-1/2 cup Apple Butter
- 1/3 cups Powdered Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Vanilla
- 2 Tablespoons Milk
- In a large bowl stir together dry ingredients (flour through sugar). With a pastry cutter or fork, cut in cream cheese and butter until crumbly and beginning to stick together. Stir in the milk. With your hands, knead the dough. It will be a little dry, but if it is too dry to stick together, add a little more milk.
- Preheat the oven to 375 F. Roll out the dough on a floured surface, and shape into a 12x8 rectangle. Place dough on a greased cookie sheet. Spread the apple butter down the middle of the dough, leaving at least 2 inches on the long sides and a 1 inch margin on the short sides.
- Make diagonal cuts into the dough going down the length of the long sides (don't cut all the way to the filling but you can get close). Then criss-cross the strips of dough over the center filling and pinch ends closed to seal in the filling. See related blog link for a step-by-step photo tutorial. Bake at 375 F for 25 minutes or until nicely browned on top. When done remove it from the oven and set it on a rack while you make the frosting.
- In a small bowl stir together powdered sugar and vanilla, then gradually add milk until the frosting reaches drizzling consistency. Using a fork, drizzle the frosting back and forth across the warm bread. Cut into strips and serve.
