A sweet, nutty topping is the crowning touch to this dessert-like coffee cake from Mrs. Eugene Plager of Grundy Center, Iowa. It tastes especially good when warm, she adds.
Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 heath candy bars (1.4 ounces each), crushed
1 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine flour and sugars; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 1/2 cup for topping. To the remaining crumb mixture, add baking soda and salt. Beat egg, buttermilk and vanilla; add to the crumb mixture and mix well. Pour into a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking pan. Combine candy bars, pecans and reserved crumb mixture; sprinkle over the top. Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Yield: 8-10 servings.
