I recently prepared this cake at a barbecue for dessert, and it was a total crowd-pleaser. One guest even remarked: “This is plum delicious!”
Streusels are usually the finishing topping to a cake, adding sweetness and crunch. You can vary the nuts with almonds or walnuts here, whatever your preference. Make sure to have the butter slightly soft so it is easier to blend all the ingredients together. If you like lots of spice, feel free to add a pinch of ginger, allspice, or nutmeg to the streusel.
