Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180C. Grease an 8" pan well.
Streusel
Combine flour, both the sugars, and cinnamon powder in a small bowl.
Stir in the melted butter. Combine with a fork until the mixture is moistened and a little clumpy. Set aside.
Cake
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat well.
Now add in the flour mixture ( in 3 additions), alternating with sour cream ( in 2 additions). Beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
Transfer half the batter into your prepared pan. Top evenly with the streusel.
Add the remaining batter on top and sprinkle the rest of the streusel. Press it down gently.
Bake the cake for 35-40 minutes at 180 C, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the cake completely in the pan. Drizzle over the glaze. Cut into squares and enjoy!
Cinnamon Glaze
Whisk all 3 ingredients in a small bowl until a smooth, thick glaze is formed.
