Grandma's Coffee Cake

     I grew up eating this coffee cake.  It is delicious!  I have tried many coffee cake recipes over the years but I always come back to this one.  It tastes especially good with a hot cup of coffee or tea.  When I make it for breakfast I serve it with something savory like bacon and eggs.  Have a blessed Saturday!

Coffee Cake:

1 1/2 c flour
3/4 c sugar
2 t baking powder
1 t salt
1/2 c milk
1 t vanilla
1/4 c melted lard
1 egg

Topping:

1/2 c sugar
1/4 c lard
1 t cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix cake ingredients together in a large bowl.  Pour into a greased 8x8 square pan.  Mix sugar, lard & cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of the batter.  Bake 15-20 minutes.
