I Love to eat coffe cake and I also love to go to Starbucks. Everyday I would get thier Streusel-Crumb Coffee Cake and a White Chocolate Mocha. Well sometimes my hubby would end up either eating half of my coffee cake or ask me to buy two. So I decided to go online and I Google searched 'Starbucks Streusel-Crumb Coffee Cake' and I clicked on the first one, http://www.recipelink.com/mf/14/6438. Now I make it at home just for my family, they love it. I thought you might like to try it out.:chef:

Streusel-Crumb Coffee Cake


For the Streusel:
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cake:
2 cups cake flour
1 cup granulated sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temp
2 eggs
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup milk


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a
10-inch tube pan, a 9-inch spring-form pan or an
8-inch square pan.

To make the streusel, in a medium bowl, combine
the graham cracker crumbs, walnuts, brown sugar,
cinnamon, cardamom, and melted butter. Blend well
and set aside.

To make the cake, sift the flour, sugar, baking
powder, and salt into a large bowl. Add the
butter, eggs, vanilla, and milk. Beat vigorously
until smooth and quite thick, about 1 minute.

Spread half of the batter into prepared pan and
sprinkle with half the streusel mixture. Spoon
remaining batter over the streusel and top with
remaining streusel. Bake until cake tests done,
about 50 minutes. Cool about 20 minutes, then
remove cake from pan.

Serves 10-12
 
I'm with you on coffeecake - love it! Tx for the recipe!

Interesting the different sizes of pans; there's a huge difference between a 10-inch tube and an 8 inch square, and I'm wondering if that would affect the cooking times?

Have you made this yet?
 
Yes I Have Made This!

Hello Marmalady, yes I have made this, in fact I make it often. I usually use a 9 inch spring-form pan. I think the cake comes out of the pan better that way. Also of course I butter and flour my pan well and I put in a piece of wax paper cut to the size of the bottom of the pan so your coffee cake won't stick to the bottom of the pan. Then you just peel off the paper when you are finished cooking and cooling your coffee cake.
 
I baked a crumb cake from recipezaar.com.. search for New Jersey Crumb Cake.. it's a no-fail recipe!
