How to Make Velvet Crumb Cake Original Recipe From Bisquick

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch square baking pan or a 9-inch round pan.
In a large bowl, combine all cake ingredients. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl constantly.
Increase speed to medium and beat for 4 minutes, scraping the bowl occasionally.
Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool slightly in the pan.
While the cake cools, prepare the crumb topping: In a medium bowl, combine all topping ingredients until evenly mixed.
Crumble the topping evenly over the slightly cooled cake.
Place the cake under the broiler, about 3 inches from the heat source. Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
Let the cake cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
