Cake Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup unsalted butter and 1.5 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Incorporate Eggs and Vanilla
Add in 3 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with 0.5 cups whole milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Pour into Pan
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Cinnamon Crumb Topping
Prepare Crumb Topping
In a small bowl, mix together 0.5 cups all-purpose flour, 0.5 cups brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon. Cut in 0.25 cups unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Topping
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter in the pan.
Baking
Bake the Cake
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cake
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving
Serve with Ice Cream
Cut the cooled cake into squares and serve each piece with a scoop of coffee ice cream on the side.
