Red ribbon Cranberry coffeecake

I got this recipe off the ocean spray web-site 2  years ago and it has become a holiday staple. I am really not a big sweets person so, when this time of year rolls around... my husband is not too happy with me b/c he is the one to eat most of it lol!!! Even though I am not a big sweet fan, I do love this recipe. I hope you enjoy!

Topping:

1/4 cup flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon sugar

Batter:

2 cups flour

3/4 cup sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 cup butter

1 egg beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3/4 cup milk

1 14 oz. can of ocean spray cranberry sauce

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. grease a pan. I used a 2 qt. pan. Combine topping ingredients for the batter in a bowl or a food processor until the butter is the size of small peas. Combine the dry ingredients for the batter in a med. mixing bowl.  work butter into dry ingredients just like the topping instructions. Combine the liquid ingredients in a separate mixing bowl. Add to the flour mixture, mixing just until moist.  Spread half the batter in the pan. Place the cranberry sauce in a small bowl and beat with a fork until smooth. Spread over batter. Dollop remaining batter over top. Gently spread with a rubber scraper. Sprinkle topping over coffee cake. Bake for 45 min. or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
