This coffee cake to die for. I always forget to get a picture cause we are always in a hurry to get to it. Then we are like a pack of wild wolves on one little pound of meat. But in the words of a 5th grader, I double dog dare ya to make this.

1 cup sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

How To Make butter brickle coffee cake

Step 1

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Step 2

Mix sugars together and set aside. Sift dry ingredients together then stir into the sugar.
Step 3

Cut butter into sugar/flour mixture then remove 1/2 cup of this mix and set it aside.
Step 4

Add buttermilk to larger mixture. Be sure and do not use low fat butter milk, use full fat. It DOES make a difference in taste. *see note* Then add vanilla and beat with a mixer until well mixed. Start with just the 1 cup of buttermilk and that is usually enough but can add a bit more so it mixes well.
Step 5

Pour this into the prepared pan.
Step 6

Add pecans and toffee bits to the reserved sugar flour and sprinkled this evenly over the cake.
Step 7

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
Step 8

Note: You can add candies such M&Ms if desired. If you cannot find full fat buttermilk then make your own by adding 2 tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar to a 1 cup measure then adding milk up to the 1 cup mark. Stir this and then let it sit about 15 minutes before using.
