Ingredients

Units Scale
Cake 2 cups Bisquick 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 egg 2/3 cup water or milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional*) Topping 1/3 cup Bisquick 1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 2 tablespoons cold butter

Instructions

Cake

  1.   Mix all ingredients.
  2.   Sprinkle Topping over the top.
  3.   Bake in a greased 8 inch square cake pan at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes.

Topping

  1.   Mix until crumbly.

Notes

* Vanilla extract is not in the original recipe, but I think it makes a lot of difference. I always add it.

The original recipe calls for baking in a 9 inch pie plate, but we have found that an 8 inch square stainless steel cake pan works best at the same temperature for the same amount of time.
