Cinnamon Streusel Cake


As you can see from the picture, this has an interior of yummy, cinnamon goodness. We topped ours with whipped cream, which balanced out some of the sweetness.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat an 8x8 in baking pan or a 9 in spring form pan with cooking spray and set aside (I used the spring form).

1/2 cup butter, soft
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
1 1/4 tsp vanilla

In a small bowl, mash the soft butter, 1/4 cup flour, brown sugar, sugar and cinnamon with a fork. It will be creamy.

In another small bowl combine 1 1/4 cups of flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.

In a large bowl beat the egg and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the melted butter, milk and vanilla. Add the flour mixture all at one time and stir together until just incorporated. Don't over mix.

Pour into prepared pan and dot surface with the brown sugar mixture. Bake for 40 -50 min or until moist crumbs cling to a toothpick inserted in the middle.
