SOUR CREAM-ORANGE COFFEE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE-PECAN STREUSEL

Steps:

• For streusel:
• Whisk brown sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl to blend. Add butter and rub in with fingertips until mixture holds together in small, moist clumps. Mix in pecans and chocolate chips. (Can be made up to 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• For cake:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour 13x9x2-inch metal baking pan. Sift flour, baking soda, and baking powder into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and butter in large bowl until blended and smooth. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, then orange peel and vanilla extract. Mix in flour mixture in 4 additions alternately with sour cream in 3 additions. Mix in orange juice. Spread half of batter in prepared pan. Sprinkle with half of streusel. Drop remaining batter over by heaping tablespoonfuls; carefully spread batter to make even layer. Sprinkle with remaining streusel.
• Bake cake 30 minutes. Lay sheet of foil loosely over pan to keep topping from browning too quickly. Continue baking until tester inserted into center of cake comes out clean, about 35 minutes longer. Remove foil. Cool cake in pan on rack 20 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar; serve warm or at room temperature. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cool completely. Store airtight at room temperature.)

SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE WITH BROWN SUGAR-PECAN STREUSEL(ATK)

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lowest position and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the inside of a 10 inch pan.
• For the Steusel - Place the flour, granulated sugar, 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, and the cinnamon in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Transfer 1 1/4 cups of the mixture to small bowl and stir in remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar; set aside (this will be the streusel for the inside of the cake). Add the butter and pecans to the remaining dry ingredients in the food processor bowl. Pulse the mixture about 3-4 times until the nuts and butter have been broken down into small pebbly pieces. Set aside. (The streusel with the butter and nuts will be for the top of the cake). If you do not have a food process, you could also do this with a pastry cutter but note it will take a bit more time.
• For the Cake - In a small bowl, combine the eggs, 1 cup of the sour cream and vanilla and set aside. In the bowl of a standing mixer, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt at low speed, about 30 seconds. Add the butter and remaining 1/2 cup of sour cream and mix at low speed until the dry ingredients are moistened. Increase to medium speed and beat 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Decrease the mixer speed to low and slowly incorporate the egg mixture in 3 additions, beating for 20 seconds after each and scraping the sides of bowl as necessary. Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 1 minute (the batter should increase in volume and become aerated and pale in color).
• Add 2 cups of the batter to the prepared pan. With an offset metal spatula or rubber spatula, smooth the surface of the batter. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup streusel filling (without butter or nuts). Drop 2 more cups of the batter over the streusel and spread evenly. Then add the remaining streusel filling. Top with remaining batter and then the streusel topping (with the butter and nuts).
• Bakes until the cake feels firm to the touch and a toothpick comes inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan for about 30 minutes. Then release the clasps of the springform pan and cool completely and serve.

SOUR CREAM PUMPKIN COFFEE CAKE WITH PECAN STREUSEL

Steps:

• 1. Streusel Mixture: Combine the brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and pecans, working in the butter until the mixture is crumbly.
• 2. I simply do this with my fingers. Divide it in half right inside the bowl and refrigerate until needed.
• 3. Pumpkin Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin, beaten egg, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
• 4. Cake Batter: In a large bowl cream together butter, sugar, and vanilla for about 5 minutes. It won't look like much at this point.
• 5. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, until light and fluffy.
• 6. In a separate bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Measure out your sour cream.
• 7. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with the sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. I do this with a wooden spoon so that I don't over beat the batter and make the cake dry and tough.
• 8. Drop 2 cups of batter in dollops in the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking pan (note: if not using a non-stick pan grease the pan before adding the batter). It will look as though there isn't going to be enough batter for two layers, but it IS plenty.
• 9. I use an offset spatula then to spread the batter into an even layer.
• 10. Sprinkle one half of the streusel (about 1 cup) over the batter.
• 11. Dollop all of the pumpkin mixture onto the streusel and gently spread it into an even layer with an offset spatula. Here again, it will look like there isn't enough but there IS plenty. Just do it in the dollops like I did the batter and spread it out.
• 12. Drop the remaining 2 cups of cake batter in dollops over the pumpkin mixture.
• 13. Carefully spread the batter over the pumpkin mixture with an offset spatula.
• 14. Sprinkle remaining streusel over the batter.
• 15. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour. In my own personal, it has taken as few as 45 minutes but in other ovens that I have baked it in it took about 52. If your oven tends to cook hot, begin checking around the 40 minute mark. A tester inserted to the center should come out clean, with maybe a slight crumb clinging.
• 16. Also, I use a non-stick pan so I do not grease it and I have never had a problem with it sticking and I have made this MANY times. If yours isn't non-stick, I would suggest you lightly spray your pan with a little non-stick cooking spray.
