This copycat Starbucks recipe is the easiest version I've found and it's much cheaper--not to mention fresher--than store-bought coffee cake. While there are quite a few Starbucks coffee-cake recipes out there, this one uses the directions on the back of a box of yellow cake mix for the base. All you need to do is bake the cake until it's partially set, add the streusel topping and return it to the oven for another 10-15 minutes.
