Instructions
For the Cake
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of white sugar, 4 teaspoons of baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Mix well to combine.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of milk, 4 eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and ¼ cup of melted butter until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ones, stirring gently until they are just mixed together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour Batter: Pour the batter into the greased baking pan, then use a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
For the Topping
- Prepare Topping Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of softened butter, 1 cup of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, and 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Add Topping to Cake: Drop spoonfuls of the topping mixture evenly over the batter in the baking pan.
- Swirl Topping: Use a butter knife to swirl the topping into the batter, creating a marble effect. Drag the knife through the batter and topping mixture, creating swirls throughout the cake.
