Three Kings Day Cake



This was my first shot at making an Epiphany cake.  I looked around for traditional recipes, but couldn't decide which traditional option to go with.  The most common recipes I found were for Rosca de Reyes, Dreikönigskuchen, and Galette des Rois.  All of them looked interesting, but were more labor intensive than I could swing with my two helpers.   After a lot of looking I decided the type of cake wasn't really important, it was more the idea of the cake. 

For awhile we have been wanting to make Blueberry Boy Bait, a simple coffee cake that won the1954 Pillsbury Grand Prize National Baking Contest.  This seemed the perfect opportunity.   It was delicious!
