Josh's Coffee Cake

This is a nice coffee cake, but it's not Hobee's. This seems to be the only version of Hobee's on the web, and it may have been on their flyer (or is that urban legend?), but this is not their signature dish. The crumb is much smoother at the restaurant and there is more topping than this recipe calls for. Additionally, it's made in tall tins, not a standard 8x8 or 9x9, which might contribute to the difference in texture. I would love to find their actual recipe somewhere, but this, unfortunately, doesn't seem to be the one.
