Coffee Cake

A giant CHEAT recipe!
Carbs 49.5g  Protein 3.8g
9 servings

You can be a star without making everything from scratch.  You guys loved the coffee cake yesterday so here it is.  Please don't laugh. I know this is so crazy easy.  It's the Half and Half that makes everyone love my coffee cake so much.  Sometimes I make a coffee cake from scratch, but really I can have this in the oven in five minutes without pulling out 10 ingredients and more clean up than I want in the morning.
My carb and protein counts are based on the brand of coffee cake mix I buy.  I tagged the brand on my Instagram.

Ingredients
Cinnamon Crumb topping coffee cake mix as natural as possible
Half and Half
egg
Irish butter

Directions
Preheat oven to 350
I bake mine using convection so the crumb topping is more crunchy.
Follow directions for your coffee cake mix.  Instead of water use half and half.  Use Irish butter in your crumb topping, it has a richer flavor. Use the number of eggs called for by your mix.  If your recipe calls for oil use butter instead.  Mine mix only uses water and an egg.  so I only put Half and Half and one egg in the mix and butter in my crumb topping.   I bake mine in an 8x8 pan.    I like to line my baking dish with parchment so I can lift my cake out and make nice cut pieces.  I bake for about 28 to 32 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.  Check your carb counts according to the mix you use.
