Instructions

To make topping: In medium bowl, stir together flour, sugar, pecans and cinnamon. With pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Set aside. To make coffeecake: Preheat to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan. In large mixer bowl, combine sugar and butter; beat at medium speed until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add sour cream, eggs and vanilla. Continue beating until well-mixed. Reduce speed to low; add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Beat until well=mixed, 1 to 2 minutes. Spread half the batter in prepared pan. Spoon cherry pie filling over batter. Spoon remaining batter over pie filling; spread carefully. Sprinkle topping mixture over batter. Bake 60 to 75 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and topping is dark golden brown. NOTE: Use real butter or stick margarine. Do not substitute reduced-fat spreads; their higher water content often yields less-satisfactory results.
