Shortcut Crumb Cake
Sometimes the shortcut recipes taste the best. That is true in this case!! This recipe comes from my friend and when I asked her for the recipe I begged her to tell me it was from scratch and not a box. I pleaded and I begged because I just knew. I knew it had to start with a box mix and I was right. BUT…..This cake is outrageous. DO NOT let the box mix scare you away!!! This shortcut crumb cake is a true winner and gets rave reviews each and every time I make it. It also freezes beautifully so you can make it ahead of time and have it on hand when needed!
