Ingredients

Coffee Cake:

2 cups Bisquick mix
2 tablespoons sugar
2/3 cup milk
1 egg

Cinnamon Streusel Topping:

1 cup Bisquick mix
2/3 cup brown sugar lightly packed
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 cup unsalted butter (diced & cold)

Instructions

For the Streusel Topping

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together Bisquick mix, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Add diced butter. Use your hands to crumble the butter into the dry mixture.

For the Coffee Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper or grease it. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick mix, sugar, milk, and egg using a spatula. Scrape the bowl down.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out.
Sprinkle streusel topping evenly over batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let it cool in the pan for 20 minutes before cutting. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

You can triple the recipe and use a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Measure the Bisquick mix properly. The best way is to spoon the mix into the measuring cup, then level it off with a knife. Adding too much dry mix is a common mistake for this recipe, and will make the cake too dry.
You can add fruit like blueberries, sliced apples or peaches for a delicious variation.
Feel free to mix in a cup of chopped almonds or pecans with your streusel topping for extra crunch.
Make sure not to overbake the cake. Otherwise, the cake can become too dry.
For the leftover coffee cake, you can microwave for 10-20 seconds before serving.
To make a coffee cake with a cinnamon filling in the middle: You'll need to double the recipe for the cake batter. Then in a small mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup Bisquick mix, and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Pour only half of the batter into the baking dish, then sprinkle the cinnamon filling on top evenly. Add the remaining batter over the cinnamon filling. Spread from the center to the edges.
