  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

    Cake

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

Method

Combine topping ingredients and set aside.

Heat oven to 350¯. Grease an 8-cup tube pan.

In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.  Set aside.

With electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar in a large bowl until fluffy. Beat in eggs, yogurt and vanilla. Gradually beat flour mixture into the batter until well blended.

Sprinkle one-fourth of the  topping into the prepared pan. Over this, spoon one-third of the batter.   Continue layering in this manner, ending with topping layer.

Bake in preheated 350°F oven for 50 to 60 minutes or until  a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Cool 15 minutes still in the pan, then  remove from pan to a wire rack.  Best served warm.
