Ann's Velvet Crumb Cake

Submitted by Kaleigh

"This is so easy and great for a light desert or with coffee in the morning. It's adapted from a Bisquik recipe and was given to me by a friend of my mother-in-law, a lovely lady named Ann. You will probably have all of the ingredients and can have this in the oven in less & your kitchen smelling heavenly in less than 15 minutes. Keeps great and no need to refrigerate."

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS AND EASY. My daughter had a sleepover for her birthday and early this AM I went looking for a Bisquick coffee cake recipe. They scarfed it down- the rest of us could hardly get to it! MODIFICATIONS- I added 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder to the batter, and sprinkled a dash of cinnamon-sugar mix (I keep for making cinnamon toast) over the top of the bake cake before pouring on the glaze. For the nut lovers I sprinkled some toasted pecans over about 1/4 of the cake and then added the glaze. WATCH the glaze- it was done in 30seconds in my oven. This is totally worth making
