Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup sour cream
• 0.25 cup whole milk
• 2 units large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup mini chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut in the cold cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup of this mixture for the streusel topping.

Step 4

To the remaining flour mixture, add the baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.

Step 5

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the sour cream, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 6

Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be thick and slightly lumpy.

Step 7

Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

To make the streusel topping, combine the reserved 1 cup flour mixture with the brown sugar and an extra 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix well to form coarse crumbs, then sprinkle evenly over the batter.

Step 10

Bake the coffee cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 11

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Step 12

If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving for a decorative touch.

Step 13

Enjoy warm or at room temperature with a cup of coffee or tea!
