Quick and easy. My family loved it! Keep a close eye on it, I cooked it a bit less than recommended time and I was glad I took it out of the oven when I did. The topping is very nice, just the right amount of sweetness.

It really is quick and also delicious. In taking other viewer's advice, I drizzled the melted butter over the topping. Will definitely make again and again.

I'm giving this recipe 5 stars because i think that it would have tasted just fine if I hadn't made the changes as other reviewers did. I added more milk,and mixed the melted butter w/ the topping and this came out too moist and the topping wasn't crumbly enough 4 me. If I just followed the original recipe it would have been great! W/ the changes this deserves 3 stars. I say: keep the recipe the way it is. It was a tad too heavy and sweet w/ changes. I have a sweet tooth and didn't care fot it. Next time I will make it the right way and I'm sure it will be scrumptious!

This coffee cake was very easy to make, but I thik next time I'll add another egg and maybe a little more milk. It's a little dry, and the batter was hard to spread in the pan.Other than that, the topping was very easy to make and there was plenty of it go go around the pan.

This was not a great recipe for Coffee Cake. The cake was not flavorful and the topping was dry and powdery.

The cake itself is so simple, moist and delicious. Because I was using a darker pan, I turned the temp down to 350 F and baked a bit longer (5-10 min longer). It came out SUPER moist. I also added 1 T vinegar to the batter. I think that helped. I also added chopped apples. It added to the moistness and delicate flavor of the cake. The crumbly topping was just OK. I like my streusel toppings really nice and thick and crumbly. So the 2nd time I used this recipe, I substituted the crumble mixture with a modified Martha Stewart mixture: (You can scale this down): 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup packed light-brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened My additions: 1 tsp - 1 T cinnamon (my addition) 1/4 cup of walnuts Just form clumps and add to the top. Overall, great proportions with the cake. Thanks for sharing!

I really liked this recipe- it was quick and easy. I had limited sugar on hand, so it was a perfect recipe for what I was looking for. My Husband and daughter didnt care for it...maybe not sweet enough? The one complaint I'd have is that it was really messy- fell apart easily, compared to some others I've made. I'd make it again, at least for myself!

Cake turned out great! After reading other reviews, I added milk to the batter (it was WAY too thick, almost like peanut butter!) and also some mixed spice to the batter (cinnamon, nutmeg & allspice blend). Instead of drizzling melted butter and then sprinkling the topping, I mixed the butter in with the topping and sort of crubmled it all over. It gave the streusel a nice crunchiness. My husband asked me to make this again the next day!

This had a nice flavor, but the batter was too thick for it to rise; I think next time I'll add some milk and see if that doesn't help.

Yummy! I didn't change a thing. It reminded my husband of his mom's toasted poundcake.

It's a good base recipe, and I liked the cinnamon-sugar topping. I think next time I make it, I'll add either raisins or apple pieces to the batter... or maybe blueberries or raspberries. Either way, it's great that it uses basic ingredients - 9 times out of 10, I'll have all the stuff I need to make it.

I read the reviews before I made this recipe so I knew that I would be altering it some. I like sweet, so I doubled the sugar and the and added chocolate. I think it came out great. It was quick and moist the topping was just some of the dry mix and bron sugar and almonds, but it was very tasty.
