Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 2 Large eggs
• 0.75 cup Brewed coffee (cooled)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Instant coffee granules
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for dusting)

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 medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and 0.5 cup of the brown sugar together until light and fluffy. You can use an electric mixer for this step.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Dissolve the instant coffee granules in the cooled brewed coffee. Gradually add the coffee mixture and sour cream to the wet ingredients, alternating with the dry flour mixture. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.

Step 6

In a small bowl, make the streusel topping by combining the remaining 0.25 cup of brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped nuts (if using).

Step 7

Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over the batter.

Step 8

Pour the remaining batter on top and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining streusel mixture over the top.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Before serving, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar. Slice and enjoy!
