I often make a double batch of this crumb. This topping is excellent for any type of fruit crumble and will store in a plastic bag in the freezer for up to 3 months. Have your butter nice\u00a0 and soft and cream it well with sugar before adding the eggs.\u00a0 You add the flour alternatively with the sour cream and then half the cranberries. \u00a0 The rest of the berries are sprinkled over the top of the cake when it is in the pan.\u00a0 If you are using frozen cranberries thaw them first.\u00a0 Finish the cake batter with the vanilla crumbs.<\/p>\n<p>Generously flour and butter your pan. You can bake this in a deep 9-inch square cake pan, or a 9-inch spring form pan.\u00a0 I prefer to use a spring form pan.\u00a0 It makes for better presentation of your cake.\u00a0 If you use a spring form pan set it on a cookie sheet or something that will catch any moisture from the cake.\u00a0 The cake will keep well for a couple of days\u00a0 &#8211; if it lasts that long.<\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/mrsbutterfingers.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/IMG_2211.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">THE COFFEE CAKE OF THE CHRISTMAS SEASON . . .

Mix on low-speed until the texture of coarse crumbs. Drizzle the vanilla over the mixture and mix briefly. Empty into a medium sized bowl and set aside.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">FOR THE CAKE<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Preheat oven to 350F<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Generously butter a 9 inch square baking pan or a 9 inch spring form pan.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Sift the flour, baking power, baking soda and salt together in a medium sized bowl.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment cream the butter well.

With each addition of the flour and sour cream mix until just a few wisps of the flour and sour cream are visible. DO NOT OVER MIX. By the time you add the last portion of flour these wisps will be combined.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Fold in one cup of cranberries using a heavy wooden spoon. The cake mixture will be quite stiff.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Spread the mixture into your prepared cake pan. Smooth the top with a soft spatula.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Distribute the remaining one cup of cranberries over the cake.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Sprinkle the crumb topping over the cranberries<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Bake for about one hour or until lightly golden and firm on top &#8211; especially the center of the cake. About ten minutes before finished baking time check your cake using a thin wooden skewer. Insert it into the center of the cake. It should come out dry..<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Cool the cake on a rack for 30 minutes, then remove the side of the top of the spring form pan.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Store wrapped in plastic wrap.
