Spiced Chai Latte Coffee Cake w/Honey Icing

Fall is my favorite time of year and with it comes pumpkin spice lattes and warm chai tea in the cool afternoons...with a generous slice of coffee cake. Coffee cakes are also good for the BFD menu, or breakfast for dinner. For this coffee cake, I used the Oregon Chai Tea Latte Mix. Whichever brand you use, make sure that it's already concentrated, or you'll have to do it yourself. In this case, I reduced the amount of water by half.

Honey Lemon Coffee Cake w/Honey Lemon Icing

I like honey lemonade and honey lemon cough drops, so I thought why not a honey lemon cake. It's got a subtle lemon flavor and would go well with either coffee in the morning or lemonade in the afternoon. I don't ordinarily bake with honey because (1) honey is expensive and (2) I find that baked goods made with honey are, surprisingly, not very sweet. Maybe I'm just too used to refined sugar. Anyway, note the reduced oven temperature. Baked goods with honey tend to brown more quickly than those made with sugar.
