Ingredients

• 1 package cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 2 tablespoons half-and-half cream
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup cold butter
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup butterscotch baking chips
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to preheat.

2. Prepare Pan: Grease a 13″ x 9″ baking pan, ensuring all sides are coated evenly.

3. Melt Butterscotch Chips: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch baking chips, ensuring not to scorch them. Keep a close eye on them while melting.

4. Prepare Butterscotch/Cream Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and milk (or half-and-half cream if preferred). Stir in the melted butterscotch chips until smooth and well incorporated. Set aside.

5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking soda, and baking powder.

6. Incorporate Butter: Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients mixture until it resembles fine crumbs.

7. Prepare Cake Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Gently stir the egg mixture into the dry ingredients until just moistened, being careful not to overmix.

8. Assemble Cake: Spread the prepared butterscotch/cream cheese mixture evenly in the bottom of the greased baking pan. Spoon the buttermilk cake batter over the butterscotch crust, ensuring an even layer.

9. Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, combine the remaining all-purpose flour and sugars. Cut in the softened butter until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in the chopped pecans.

10. Add Topping: Sprinkle the prepared topping evenly over the top of the cake batter.

11. Bake: Place the assembled cake in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

12. Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the irresistible flavors of this Butterscotch Coffee Cake with your favorite hot beverage or as a delightful dessert treat any time of day!
