Betty Crocker Coffee Cake

My grandma’s recipe for cinnamon streusel coffee cake is famous in our family. When I started blogging, I was also selling baked goods, hence the name of my site. This morning morsel was a top seller to say the very least!

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter softened
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup milk
  • cups flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon*

streusel

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • ½ cup chopped nuts
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Spray 9-inch square or circular pan with nonstick spray.
  • Mix sugar, butter, and egg thoroughly. Stir in milk. The batter will be very wet.
  • Mix dry ingredients together in separate bowl. Add flour to wet ingredients.
  • In a medium bowl, microwave butter. Mix in remaining streusel ingredients.
  • Spread half of the batter on bottom of pan. Move into place gently with a fork. Batter is thick, so it requires some maneuvering. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over batter.
  • In spoonfuls, place second half of batter in pan. With a fork, gently spread the batter together over the streusel.
  • Sprinkle remaining streusel over top of batter.
  • Bake 35 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes and serve. 

Notes

* this 1 teaspoon of cinnamon is not in the original recipe; it is my addition, but I think it's delightful!
