This recipe was printed in a newspaper a few weeks ago, and I cut it out. I too remember the coffee cake from school. Hope this is what Lynette Jones was looking for. No, I wasn't there in 1954, I was there during the 60's. Old Fashioned Coffee Cake (1954) LAUSD 3 3/4 cups all purpose flour 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp.
