Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar
• 0.75 cups Raspberry preserves
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour (for streusel)
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan, then set it aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture, and cut it in using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. The batter will be thick.

Step 5

Spread two-thirds of the batter evenly into the prepared springform pan, reserving the rest for later.

Step 6

In another mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy. Spread this cream cheese mixture over the batter in the pan.

Step 7

Spoon the raspberry preserves over the cream cheese layer, gently spreading it into an even layer.

Step 8

Take the remaining batter and drop it by spoonfuls over the raspberry layer. It will not completely cover the surface; this is okay.

Step 9

To make the streusel topping, mix together 0.5 cups of brown sugar, 0.5 cups of flour, and melted butter in a small bowl until crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cake.

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

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
