Coffee Cake

Coffee Cake



For the base
2.25 Cups Bisquick
1/4 Cup sugar

Stir together.

Add
1 Egg
1 Cup milk

Mix well and put in a greased cake pan (I use 9X13 pan)

Topping
1 Cup Sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 Cup flour (or just more bisquick to make it easier)

mix these in a separate bowl or in the one you just poured your base out of.
once it is all a uniform color Then cut in 6 or 7 Tablespoons of semi firm butter (1 stick is 8 Tablespoons)
I use a fork and push down on the butter as I stir it into the topping mix.  And I think I stir it longer than most until all the loose sugar cinnamon is kindof uniform.  Youll see the difference beween the mix with butter and without.  I mix until it is all consistent and then speak it over the top of the base in the baking pan.  But if you don't mix for a long time and there is still some kinda loose sugar cinnamon in the bowl when you're spreading it on that's fine it will just look a little different when it's finished.  That's how my mom made it when I was growing up... I prefer just to keep mixing... but its butter and sugar cinnamon, you're not gonna mess it up.

Preheat oven to 375 and bake it for 17 Min.
