Cream Cheese Coffee Cake (Entenmann's)

By Cindy

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter softened
• 1 (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
• 1-1/4 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 cups flour, unsifted
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup milk or heavy cream

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan or you can use two 8" round cake pans.

Cream butter and cream cheese until light. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time and vanilla until well blended. Set aside.

Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually add flour mixture, alternating with milk to butter mixture beating well after each addition. Turn into baking pan(s), sprinkle with topping mixture.

Bake in 350° oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown.

Topping:

1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup flour, unsifted
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons butter softened

Blend all ingredients together with a fork. For an extra crumbly coffee cake, I always double topping recipe.
