I practically had to sell my soul to get this recipe from my daughter's friend. It is definitely one of the best crumb cakes ever!

Ingredients

CAKE
1 box yellow cake mix
4 - eggs
1 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 box instant lemon pudding mix
CRUMB TOPPING
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon

How To Make thea’s crumb cake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour 13x9" pan.

Step 2

In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the remaining ingredients and mix on low speed until combined. I usually add a couple of drops of lemon oil, too. Increase to high speed and beat for additional 2 minutes. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes.
Step 3

While the cake is baking, prepare crumb topping by combining flour, sugar and cinnamon. Add butter and mix well by hand. (I use my hands to do this-a little messy but effective.)
Step 4

Crumble this mixture over the cake and bake for an additional 10 minutes. When cake is cool, dust with confectioners sugar.
