Description

Rich, moist, and infused with butterscotch flavor, this Butterscotch Coffee Cake is a delightful twist on the classic coffee cake. Perfect for brunch or dessert, it boasts a tender crumb with swirls of cinnamon and brown sugar for a melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 (3.4 oz) box instant butterscotch pudding mix
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • ¾ cup water

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan or a 9×13-inch pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Batter: In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, instant butterscotch pudding mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and water. Stir until the batter is completely smooth and well blended.
  3. Prepare Sugar Mixture: In a separate small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon until evenly combined.
  4. Layer Batter and Sugar: Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the batter. Add the remaining batter on top, then sprinkle with the rest of the sugar mixture.
  5. Swirl and Bake: Using a knife, gently swirl the batter and sugar mixture together to create a marbled effect. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool for about 15 minutes before removing from the pan. For an indulgent finish, drizzle with butterscotch glaze or caramel sauce if desired before serving.

Notes

  • For added sweetness and decoration, top the cake with a butterscotch glaze or caramel drizzle.
  • You can substitute vegetable oil with canola or melted butter for a richer flavor.
  • Ensure the cake is fully baked by checking for a clean toothpick; baking times may vary slightly based on your oven.
  • This cake is best served slightly warm but also delicious at room temperature.
