Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups brown sugar, packed
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set it aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix in the vanilla extract until just combined. The batter will be thick.

Step 5

In another small bowl, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped pecans (if using) to make the streusel layer.

Step 6

Spread half of the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over the batter. Carefully spread the remaining batter over the streusel layer and then sprinkle the remaining streusel on top.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes.

Step 8

While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 9

Drizzle the glaze over the slightly cooled cake. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
