• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with 1/4 cup butter and dust with bread crumbs.
• Mix 3/4 cup butter, flour, sugar, milk, cardamom, and baking powder together lightly in a bowl to form a moderately stiff and lumpy dough; transfer dough to the prepared tube pan. Sprinkle cinnamon and pearl sugar over the top of the dough, respectively.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

SPICY CARDAMOM COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Cake: Cream together sugar and butter until fluffy.

• Stir in the baking powder, soda, salt, and Cardamom.
• Stir in the floor one cup at a time, adding sour cream and milk as you go along.
• Topping: In a separate bowl mix together the"topping" ingredients.
• To Assemble: You can bake this in a few different style pans.
• A bundt cake pan would work well.
• I used two tall round 8" cake pans.
• Oil your pans well.
• Pour the batter in your pans- be sure to leave some room at the top as these cakes should rise.
• Sprinkle the top with your topping.
• Alteration: Instead of sprinkling the topping over the cake, you might prefer to pour half your batter in the pan, create an inside layer by sprinkling in some of your topping and then pour the remaining batter in your pan and sprinkle the rest of the nut mixture over the top.
• You can always whip up some more topping if you need to!
• To Bake: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• This is a dense cake and will bake for about an hour (in a bundt cake pan).
• Keep checking on it by inserting a knife in the top.
• If it comes out clean, it's done.
• To Serve: Let the cake cool for a while (at least half an hour).
• Turn the cake over and slide onto a plate (if you have used a bundt cake pan).
• If you used a cake pan, loosen the edges of the cake pan with a knife, gently easing the cake up out of the pan.
• If you need to, turn the cake over and gently tap it out of the pan, once the cake is out of the pan you can turn it back over onto a plate for presentation.
