- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking pan or a square baking dish.
2. Make the Cake Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick baking mix, milk, granulated sugar, and egg. Stir until well combined and smooth.
3. Prepare the Streusel Topping:
In a separate bowl, mix together the Bisquick baking mix, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Add the cold butter pieces and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Assemble the Cake:
Pour the prepared cake batter into the greased baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping over the batter, covering it completely.
5. Bake the Cake:
Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
Allow the coffee cake to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Enjoy warm or at room temperature, with a cup of coffee or tea.
