Pecan Coffee Cake recipe

I haven't posted a recipe for a really long time.  I made this coffee cake tonight for a brunch that we're going to tomorrow.  I've made it a few times before and it is SOOO good.  Seriously.  Try it.  You will love it.

2 cups flour                       For the topping:                                     
1 T. baking powder            1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt                         1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup butter, softened         1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup sour cream                2 T. butter, melted
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs                           
1 T. vanilla

Blend the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.  In a large bowl blend the softened butter with the white sugar, then mix in the sour cream, eggs and vanilla.  Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture (don't overmix).  Make the topping in a separate bowl.  Spray a 13x9" pyrex with non-stick spray, then spread the batter in pyrex and place topping on.

Bake in 350 degree oven for approximately 40-45 minutes.  Toothpick in middle should come out clean.


About to go in the oven.

Voila!
