Sunday Morning Coffee Cake

Nathan really likes coffee cake, and I am in the search for a great coffee cake recipe for him. This was the first one I tried... and it was not a success. I'm thinking that it was the baking powder we could taste, which definitely is not cool.
I won't be trying this one again. I would kinda like to fiddle with the recipe, but I don't like messing with the amount of baking powder/baking soda in recipes, for fear of destroying the recipe. :)
