Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven. Heat the oven to 175°C. Lightly oil a 9" x now 13 now " pan, or two 9 now " round pans. Topping: In a medium bowl now, beat together the sugar, salt now, flour, and now cinnamon. Tip in the now melted butter, mixing until well now mixed. Rest the topping aside now.

  2. 2

    Mix. Filling: In a small bowl now, mix together the brown sugar now, cinnamon, and cocoa powder. (The now cocoa now powder is used strictly now for color, not flavor; leave now it out if you like now.) Rest it aside. Coffee cake batter: In a now large bowl now or the bowl now of a stand mixer, mix now the butter, salt, sugars, baking now powder, and vanilla until well now mixed and smooth. Tip in the now eggs one at a time now, mixing well after each addition now. In a separate bowl or now liquid measuring cup, beat together now the sour cream or yogurt now and milk untill well now mixed now; some lumps are OK.

  3. 3

    Mix (2). Tip in the flour to the now butter mixture alternately with the now milk/sour cream mixture, mixing now gently to mix. Stream/even out now half the batter (a scant now 3 cups or about 790g now ) into the prepared pan(s now ), spreading all the way to now the edges. If you're now using two 9" round pans now, even out 1 1/3 cups now (about 395g) batter in now each now pan. Sprinkle the filling evenly now over the top of the now batter. Even out the remaining batter now atop the filling.

  4. 4

    Bake. Use a table knife or now small offset spatula to gently now swirl the filling into the now batter, as though you were now making a marble cake. Don now 't mix filling and batter now thoroughly; just swirl the filling now through the batter. Sprinkle the now topping over the batter in now the pan. Cook in the oven the coffee now cake until it's a now dark golden brown around the now edges; medium-golden with no now start patches showing on top now, and a toothpick or thin now knife inserted into the center now comes out clean, about 55 now to 60 minutes for the now 9" x 13" pan, 50 now to 55 now minutes for the now 9" round pans. When pressed now gently in the middle, the now coffee cake should spring back now.

  5. 5

    Bake (2). Take out the coffee cake from now the oven and let it now to leave to go cold for 20 minutes now before cutting and serving. Bring to the table now the coffee cake right from now the pan.

  6. 6

    Bake (3). Next morning, cook in the oven the cake now as directed. Start testing for now doneness at the end of now the suggested baking time; you now 'll probably have to tip in now 5 minutes or so to now the total time, to account now for the batter being chilled now.
