Quick and Easy Rich Yellow Cake

Ingredients for topping:

Light brown sugar - 1/3 cup

Granulated sugar - 1/3 cup

All-Purpose flour - 1/3 cup

Unsalted butter - 4 tbsp. (softened)

Ground cinnamon - 1 tbsp.

Pecans - 1 cup (chopped coarse)

Ingredients for cake:

All-Purpose flour - 3 cups

Baking powder - 1 tbsp.

Baking soda - 1 tsp.

Ground cinnamon - 1 tsp.

Salt - 1/4 tsp.

Sour cream - 1 3/4 cups (room temperature)

Light brown sugar - 1 cup (packed )

Granulated sugar - 1 cup

Eggs - 3 (room temperature)

Butter - 7 tbsp. (melted and cooled)

Method of preparing the topping:

Use your fingers to press the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon together.
Mix together until the mixture looks like wet sand and then pour in the pecan nuts.

Method of preparing the cake:

Place the oven rack in the middle oven slot. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
Grease two 9-inch cake pans with butter or oil. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
In a second bowl, whisk together the sour cream, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and melted butter until smooth. Fold the egg mixture into the flour mixture gently, until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter into the two greased pans and smooth the top. Sprinkle the topping over the batter.
Tap the pans gently on the counter to settle the batter. Bake the cakes for 25 to 30 minutes, rotating the pans at the half-time mark.
The cakes are ready when the tops are golden. Insert a toothpick to see if crumbs come out. Let the cake cool for half an hour and serve at room temperature.
