"The real things haven't changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong."

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon butter or margarine, softened
2 to 3 teaspoons water
1/4 teaspoon Almond extract
Directions:
Heat oven to 400 F. Spray 8 or 9 inch square pan with baking spray
In medium bowl, beat 1/2 cup butter, milk. vanilla, and egg with spoon. Stir in flour, granutlated sugar, baking powder and salt until moistened. Fold in rasberries. Spread in pan.
Bake 25-30 minutes or until top is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes.
In small bowl, mix glaze ingredients until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over warm coffee cake. Enjoy!
I've also made this with fresh blackberries and lemon extract instead of almond...wonderful!
Have a great weekend!
