This recipe comes from Aunt Nin - she was cook in the Wheelersburg School System in 1968 and 'made up' recipes with what was on hand for teachers meetings etc. I have shared this recipe 100s of time since then.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
2 c flour
3/4 c butter
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
1 c strong coffee
1 tsp soda

Steps:

  • 1. Turn oven on to 350 degrees
  • 2. Can use three 9" cake or pie pans OR a 9x13 pan
  • 3. In a bow mix brown sugar, flour and butter until lumpy (like strudel) DO NOT MIX UNTIL CREAMY
  • 4. Take out one cup of the above mixture for topping
  • 5. Add soda to hot coffee to dissolve
  • 6. To the balance in bowl add the egg, vanilla, then add the HOT coffee/soda mixture - mix well
  • 7. This is a thin batter - just spread it into baking pan and sprinkle on topping evenly. Put in preheated oven
  • 8. Should spring up when done - about 30-35 mins
  • 9. While still warm sprinkle xxxsugar aka powdered sugar on top - doesn't take a lot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your coffee cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the cake lighter and more tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Sift the flour before measuring it. This will help to ensure that you have the correct amount of flour in the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can toughen the cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will help to prevent the cake from being overbaked.
