Cinnamon Coffee Cake

Serves 16-20

Ingredients:
 
1 C butter, softened
2-3/4 C sugar, divided
4 Eggs
2 tsp vanilla
3 C all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 C sour cream
2 TBS ground cinnamon

Instructions:

In a large bowl, cream butter and 2 C sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; add alternately with sour cream, beating just enough after each addition to keep batter smooth.
 
Spoon a third of batter into a greased 10 in tube pan. Combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle a third over batter in pan. Repeat layers two more times. Bake at 350 for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean. Cool for 15 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
