Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake



This is scrumptous.

I got this recipe from the website of an American bed and breakfast somewhere in Michigan. I made it a couple of weeks ago for a VBS leaders breaky and it was certainly a hit! It makes me think of Fall and Christmas and all things warm and cozy. You'll love it.

1/4 Cup Butter or Margarine
3/4 Cup Sugar
1 Egg, slightly beaten
1 1/2 Cups Flour
2 tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 Cup Milk (Homo is best!)
1 tsp. Vanilla

Topping
1 Cup Brown Sugar
3 Tbsp. Flour
2 tsp. Cinnamon
4 Tbsp. Butter or Margerine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, cream butter and sugar; beat in egg.

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk.

Stir in vanilla extract. Pour blended mixture into prepared pan.

To make topping: In a small bowl, mix together sugar, flour and cinnamon. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork. Spoon half over batter and swirl. Spoon remaining topping over batter.

Bake for 30 minutes.

**I doubled this recipe and made it in a 9" x 13". It was awesome!

Enjoy!
