Directions

To make the crumbs: Sift the 4 cups flour and then mix in 1⅓ cups sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl.

Mix in the 1 pound melted butter, 3 teaspoons vanilla, 1 teaspoon butter flavor.

The crumb mixture should have a consistency of wet sand.

(You can add more flour/sugar if needed).

When done, store in refrigerator.

To make the cake: Grease a large lasagna style pan (12 x 17) and shake flour into it to coat it.

Mix the cake ingredients together thoroughly in a large bowl: the yellow cake mix (DON’T follow any instructions on the cake mix box!!), 3 eggs, 1⅓ cups water, 1½ teaspoon vanilla, and 1½ teasoom. butter.

Pour into the lasagna pan and bake for 15 minutes at 350℉ (180℃).

Remove from oven and;crumble the crumbs mixture evenly over the partially-baked cake.

You can grab a large chunk and use a cheese grater to do this.

Return to the oven and bake for 15 minutes longer, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the cake.

Cool completely and sift powdered sugar over the crumbs.

Cut cake into pieces before taking it out of the pan.
