Mom's Sour Cream Coffee Cake image

I learned the hard way that this recipe is very forgiving. I misread the directions and added a whole 16oz. container of sour cream. But it still came out fantastic! This was fluffy, moist and very flavorful. Would go great with a cup of coffee, some milk, or even a glass of white wine! Perfect for the holiday's, a bake sale,...

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 lb butter, softened
1 c sugar
2 eggs, beaten
8 oz sour cream
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
TOPPING AND MIDDLE OF CAKE
1/2 c chopped walnuts
1/4 c sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
NOTE: I ALWAYS DOUBLE THE TOPPING AND PUT 1/2 IN THE MIDDLE AND 1/2 ON TOP OF CAKE. WE LOVE IT !
**CAKE CAN BE GLUTEN FREE/WHEAT FREE BY SWAPPING GF FLOUR FOR REGULAR FLOUR. THE CAKE WILL BE DELICIOUS.

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter, and sugar in a large bowl. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla, beating on medium speed until well blended.
  • 2. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Add gradually to creamed mixture, beating after each addition.
  • 3. Have walnuts, sugar and cinnamon mixed together. Butter a 9-inch spring form pan. Put 1/2 the batter into pan and sprinkle 1/2 the cinnamon mixture over batter. Add remaining batter and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon mixture. **batter will be thick, so I dollop it over the cinnamon layer of cake, and gently blend it together with the back of a spoon, then sprinkle cinnamon over top of cake.
  • 4. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
