This cake is buttery delicious, it has a cream cheese layer in the middle and topped with a crumb topping, I always double the topping! You can also bake this cake in an 11 x 7-inch baking pan - top baked cake with sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired :)
Ingredients:
1 cup butter (no substitutes)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup sour cream
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 egg yolk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup butter (semi-soft)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (oven rack set to second-lowest position).
2. Grease a 13 x 9-inch (or an 11 x 7-inch, baking time will need to be increased slightly).
3. Cream butter with sugar (about 3-4 minutes), add in eggs and sour cream; beat well (about another 3 minutes).
4. In a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
5. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture; beat well until combined (batter will be thick).
6. Spread more than half of the batter in the prepared baking pan.
7. In another bowl, cream together all filling ingredients, then carefully spread over the cake batter.
8. Spoon the remaining cake batter over the top of the cheese mixture (it doesn't have to cover the cake batter completely, I just dot tablespoonfuls over the batter).
9. For the topping (I most always double the ingredients) mix all ingredients, and sprinkle over cake.
10. Bake for about 50-55 minutes or until middle feels set and not jiggly.
