Recipe of the Week - Sour Cream Coffee Cake

If you're anything like me, you buy the large sour cream tub thinking, why yes of course we will use this much for the one time we have tacos. Of course you use one-tenth of it. This is a great, easy recipe to whip up before you have friends popping by for coffee. It doesn't last a day in our house.

Aunt Sharon's Sour Cream Coffee Cake

1/3 cup unsalted butter
2/3 cup gran. sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 and 1/4 cups flour
1 and 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup sour cream

1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon (you could easily add 2 tsp)

Mix together brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix well.
Combine dry ingredients. Stir into wet, alternating with the sour cream. If dough seems too stiff, add some milk.
Pour half into 9x13 pan. Sprinkle half cinnamon mix evenly overtop. Add remaining batter and top with other half of cinnamon mix.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.
