    List of Ingredients




    STREUSEL TOPPED TRIPLE BERRY COFFEE CAKE

    INGREDIENTS:

    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup sugar (I used 2/3 cup sugar)
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 egg
    1/2 cup butter, melted
    1/2 cup milk (I used lowfat milk)
    2 cups berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries; fresh or frozen) (First two times I used 1 cup fresh blueberries and 1 cup fresh raspberries, tossed with 1 Tbsp sugar just before adding to batter, since the raspberries were a little too tart. Third time I used frozen blueberries and raspberries, unthawed, also tossed with 1 Tbsp sugar just before adding).
    3/4 teaspoon vanilla (I used 1 tsp vanilla extract)
    1 dash cinnamon, generous

    ---Topping---
    1/2 cup brown sugar, packed (I used 7 Tbsp dark brown sugar)
    3 tablespoons flour
    3 teaspoons cinnamon (1 Tbsp)
    1/4 cup nuts, finely chopped [From the poster: "I use walnuts or pecans]" (I omitted the nuts)
    3 tablespoons butter, melted (I used cold butter, cut in pieces)

    *(Preheat oven to 375 F).
    1. In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon.
    2. In a small bowl, mix egg, melted butter, milk and vanilla.
