Grandmas Crumb Cake Recipe
This is one of the best homemade coffeecakes I have ever tasted and it was first introduced to me by a close friends husband who always baked it for special occasions. I was fortunate enough to get the recipe years ago so here it is.

Yummy! I love crumb cake, it's one of my absolute faves. That and Irish Tea Cake. I cannot wait to make this. Another great addition might be to add chopped nuts to the crumb mixture. Yummy!

Very nice recipe, Grandma did good.


Made it twice so far. Love it and so did everyone else. Replaced the milk for sourcream. Still moist if a tad overcooked.
