    Steps to Make It

    Prepare the Cake

    1. Gather the ingredients.

    2. Spray a 9-x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Make sure to generously grease the sides as well as the bottom.  Preheat oven to 350 F.

    3. Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Alternatively, use a large bowl and a hand mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.

    4. Beat the eggs in, one at a time, until each is incorporated.

    5. Mix in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and milk until just combined.

    6. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl, then beat on medium-low until completely combined. Be careful to not overmix—you can stop mixing once there are just a few streaks of dry ingredients. Switch to a silicone spatula, scraping down the bowl and folding until the ingredients are well combined.

    7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading into an even layer.

    8. Pour the cherry pie filling across the top of the cake to evenly cover the top.

    Prepare the Streusel

    1. Gather the ingredients.

    2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. With a rubber spatula or your hands, fold the ingredients together until a crumbly mixture forms.

    3. Evenly distribute the streusel over the top of the cherry pie filling.

    4. Bake until the streusel is browned and the cherry juices are bubbling, and a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it, 50 minutes to 1 hour.

    Prepare the Icing

    1. Gather the ingredients.

    2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until the icing is smooth.

    3. Let the cake cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Drizzle the icing all over the top of the cherry coffee cake. Slice and serve.
