Black Cherry Coffee Cake

This coffee cake is so moist and tender, sweet and jammy (is that a word?), I can't help but try to legitimize eating it as a meal. If you can't find black cherry preserves, or that isn't your thing, use whatever jam you like best. Blueberry or apricot would taste great.

Black cherry jam dolloped around big chunks of cinnamon infused coffee cake with walnut struesel topping.
