How to Make Stollen Coffee Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine or butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
Add 2 large eggs, ½ cup sour cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in 1 cup raisins and ⅔ cup chopped candied fruit from your favorite fruitcake mix.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
In a small bowl, combine ½ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ cup chopped pecans, and ⅓ cup chopped candied fruit from your fruitcake mix.
Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the batter and gently pat it down.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before serving warm or completely cooled.
