Ultimate Streusel Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a bowl; set aside. Butter a 10-inch Bundt pan (or other tube pan with 3-quart capacity); set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Add vanilla; stir until combined. Add the reserved flour mixture and sour cream, and stir just until well combined. Spoon half the batter into the bottom of the prepared pan. Make a well in the batter, and crumble 2/3 of the streusel mixture into the well. Top with remaining batter, smoothing top. Sprinkle remaining streusel evenly over the top. Bake until golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean, about 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and milk until well combined; set aside, covered with plastic wrap, until ready to use. Cool cake until just warm before drizzling with icing.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350*.
• Prepare streusel.
• Mix all ingredients until crumbly.
• Beat remaining ingredients in large mixer bowl on low speed 30 seconds.
• Beat on medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, 2 minutes.
• Spread half of the batter in greased oblong pan, 13x9x2" or square pan, 9x9x2"; sprinkle with half the streusel.
• Top with remaining batter; sprinkle with remaining streusel.
• Bake until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two 9x5x3-inch loaf pans. Combine first 3 ingredients in small bowl. Cut in 1/4 cup chilled butter using fingers or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Set streusel mixture aside.
• Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and nutmeg into large bowl. Using electronic mixer, cream 3/4 cup butter and 1 1/3 cups sugar together in another large bowl until fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Fold in dry ingredients alternately with plain yogurt, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Pour about 1 1/2 cups batter into bottom of each prepared pan. Sprinkle 1/3 cup streusel over each. Sprinkle 1/4 of apple over each. Divide remaining batter, streusel and apple between pans, beginning with batter. Run small sharp knife through batter to create swirl. Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool on rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Cool for about 15 minutes, then carefully run a knife around the sides of the pan to loosen cake.
• Turn the cake out onto a rack to cool completely.
• In a bowl whisk together the confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons whipping cream adding/whisking in more whipping cream to create a THICK glaze (make sure it is thick enough to cling to the cake).
