VELVET CRUMB CAKE (ORIGINAL RECIPE FROM BISQUICK)



Velvet Crumb Cake (Original Recipe from Bisquick) image

I got this recipe off the side of a Bisquick box over 20 years ago. It's the best cake I've ever had. They took the recipe off the box so I e-mailed them and asked them to send it to me. I don't eat a lot of sweets, but this is one I could eat everyday. I changed the coconut to Wheaties as I can't see a crumb cake with coconut. I've always made it with Wheaties. I also double the topping because it's so sweet and good, but I wrote the recipe as it's called for. Hope you enjoy this. By the way they've since put this recipe back on the box.

BISQUICK VELVET CRUMB CAKE WITH PEACHES



Bisquick Velvet Crumb Cake with Peaches image

My mom would make this on occasion when I was growing up. It is the cake that I most request from my mom. I think that this is the Velvet Crumb recipe from the the Bisquick box but I am not sure how mom got the idea to add the peaches. Wherever she got the idea, it is a good one and I still ask her to make this for my birthdays.

Tips:

1. Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the cake batter to come together smoothly and evenly. 2. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake. 3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling. 4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk: This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick or lumpy. 5. Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. 6. Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly. 7. Do not open the oven door during baking: This can cause the cake to fall. 8. Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Velvet crumb cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist, tender crumb and sweet, velvety frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. If you are looking for a delicious and impressive cake to make, velvet crumb cake is the perfect choice.
