Excellent recipe! Never attempted making homemade crumb cake before, but it was so simple and I had all the ingredients on hand so I gave it a shot. So glad I did. Only change I made was baking it in an 8" square pan rather than the 9x13. I think because of this the crumb topping came out thicker and more like a NJ crumb cake. Very pleased with the result and highly recommend that cake pan size. See photo

AMAZING. personally i couldn't stop eating it. loved the slight saltiness of the topping. I divided it and made two, adding seedless raspberry fruit spread between the cake and topping layers to one and leaving the other as is. i didn't spread the fruit evenly in hopes of getting a more home-made, swirled feel to it. if i make it again i would stick with the raspberry version. it was perfect and was the more popular of the two. when it came out of the oven i was disappointed because my topping didn't look particularly crumbly, but once you slice it you can tell that topping is definitely a different texture than the cake and crumbles nicely once you dip your fork in. thanks so much!

This is hands down the best crumb cake I have ever tasted. My husband LOVED it and so did the rest of the family. Super easy recipe! The only changes I made was used 50:50 white:light brown sugar for the topping instead of all white, used half of the cinnamon, and I added the topping half way through the cooking time, at about 20min (the total cooking time for me was about 40 min). Delicious!

Absolutely love this recipe and tried to turn it into a little closer version of Starbuck's chunkier version by doubling the topping and replacing Bisquick with Vanilla cake mix and adding brown suger along with the regular sugar- it was unbelivable! For breakfast the morning after thankgiving i made it but instead of cinnamon i used Pumkin Pie Spice - delic!! Next time will try to mix topping with Spice Cake cake mix! Thanks! Daisy
