New York crumb cake? This means crumbs as big as your head! Thick, rich, buttery crumbs packed with cinnamon! I used cinnamon chips in this cake which pushed it over the New York edge! Perfection! Read on for the New York Crumb Cake Recipe!
Crumbs:
4 cups flour
2 ½ cups sugar
4 sticks butter-soft
1 ½ tsp cinnamon
Mix all ingredients together in a mixer. Form into tight pieces w/your hands. Chill crumbs in a bowl in the fridge while preparing the cake.
Cake:
1 stick butter
8 oz pkg cream cheese, soft
1 ¼ cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups flour
¼ tsp salt
¼ cup + 2 T. milk
1 cup cinnamon chips (Mine are from ABC Cake Decorating and they are fabulous!!) Chips are optional-cake is delish plain, too
Preheat oven to 350. In a mixer, cream butter & cream cheese. Add sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat till smooth. Combine dry ingredients and them as you alternate with the milk. Spread in a 10×15 pan. Bake 10 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle on your huge crumbs!!! Bake for an additional 50 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Hey danielle. Is this my crumb cake with added cinnamon chips?
Looks good!
I just used to come to your page for the halved recipe (mine-LOL). Of course today. I want to make half and I can’t remember how long you said to bake it. Oh well.

(Oh. And my new oven plays nice with butter better than the old cranky one! I don’t use margarine anymore)
