Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup butter (no substitutes)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup sour cream
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 egg yolk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup butter (semi-soft)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (oven rack set to second-lowest position).
  • Grease a 13 x 9-inch (or an 11 x 7-inch, baking time will need to be increased slightly).
  • Cream butter with sugar (about 3-4 minutes), add in eggs and sour cream; beat well (about another 3 minutes).
  • In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture; beat well until combined (batter will be thick).
  • Spread more than half of the batter in the prepared baking pan.
  • In another bowl, cream together all filling ingredients, then carefully spread over the cake batter.
  • Spoon the remaining cake batter over the top of the cheese mixture (it doesn't have to cover the cake batter completely, I just dot tablespoonfuls over the batter).
  • For the topping (I most always double the ingredients) mix all ingredients, and sprinkle over cake.
  • Bake for about 50-55 minutes or until middle feels set and not jiggly.

Tips:

  • Prep the Cream Cheese: For optimal results, ensure your cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing. This allows it to blend smoothly with other ingredients, creating a creamy and cohesive batter.
  • Use Quality Butter: Opt for unsalted butter to control the saltiness and achieve the desired flavor balance. Room-temperature butter incorporates better, resulting in a tender and flavorful crumb.
  • Creaming Method: The creaming method is crucial for aerating the butter and sugar mixture. This incorporation of air creates a light and fluffy texture. Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter can lead to a dense and tough coffee cake. Mix the ingredients just until combined. Overmixing can also cause the gluten in the flour to develop too much, resulting in a chewy texture.
  • Use Fresh Sour Cream: Fresh sour cream adds richness and moisture to the coffee cake batter. Avoid using sour cream that has been sitting in the refrigerator for an extended period as it may not provide the desired taste and texture.
  • Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: For an irresistibly sweet and crunchy topping, combine cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle it generously over the batter before baking. This creates a contrasting texture and enhances the overall flavor.
  • Checking for Doneness: Insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the coffee cake. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, the coffee cake is done baking.

Conclusion:

This fantastic buttery cream cheese coffee cake recipe offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures that will impress any coffee lover. With its tender crumb, rich cream cheese filling, and sweet cinnamon-sugar topping, this coffee cake is perfect for a leisurely breakfast or afternoon snack. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting, follow these detailed instructions and tips to create a coffee cake that will be the star of your next gathering. Enjoy the sweet and comforting flavors of this classic treat!
