Equipment

  • 9x13 pan
  • large mixing bowl
  • small mixing bowl

Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cup of milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Topping

  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Pre heat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the butter and sugar. Cream butter and sugar together by mixing together for 1-2 minutes (medium speed on stand mixer).
  • Add wet ingredients (milk, eggs, and vanilla) to the butter and sugar.
  • Add the dry ingredients (salt, flour, and baking powder) and mix together until the batter is smooth.
  • Prepare the 9×13 cake pan by rubbing the sides and bottom with butter.
  • Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to get any remaining batter out of the bottom of the bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar across the top of the batter in an even layer.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes.
  • For best results, bake until the center of the cake is set and the top of the cake turns golden brown.

Notes

Storage:
Allow the coffee cake to cool completely. Use an airtight container, plastic wrap, or aluminum foil to cover the coffee cake. Store at room temperature up to 7 days.
Reheat:
Reheating coffee cake can result in decreased moisture which can change the texture. To prevent this and keep a moist and tender cake, microwave for short 10-15 second intervals until the coffee cake is warm.
Baking at sea level:
Bake for 25 minutes.
