Margaret'S Sour Cream Coffee Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sour cream

Preparation

Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Cream the butter, add sugar, eggs, vanilla and sour cream.
Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and mix until combined, do not overmix. This batter will be thick.
Spoon half the batter into a greased and floured 10\" bundt pan. Sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture on top and spoon the remaining batter on top.
Bake at 375 for 35-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes and invert onto a plate. Cool for another 20 minutes and place the cake into a large plastic bag which really makes the cake moist.
For variations:.
- add walnuts or pecans with the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
- spread chocolate chips in place of the sugar/cinnamon mixture as this tastes excellent.
