The best coffee cake ever.

Does anyone else think it's weird that Coffee cake doesn't have "coffee" in it?! This is great either way!

For the cake:
1 1/2 stick butter, softened
2 cups sugar
3 cups flour, sifted
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 1/4 c. whole milk
3 whole egg whites, beaten until stiff

For the topping:
1 1/2 stick butter, softened
3/4 c. flour
1 1/2 c. brown sugar
2 tbsp. cinnamon
1 1/2 c. pecans, chopped

1 Pre heat oven to 350. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat egg whites and set aside.

2 Cream butter and sugar. Add flour mixture and milk alternately until combined. Don't over beat. Fold in beaten egg whites with a spatula. Spread in a well greased baking pan.

3 In a separate bowl, combine topping ingredients, smash up until crumbly. Sprinkle all over top.

4 Bake for 40-45 mins or until firm. Serve warm.


Happy baking,
