Overnight Coffee Cake

From: A Joanne Fluke book (cooking murder mystery)

Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
8 oz sour cream
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 Tbsp milk

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking soda, nutmeg and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture alternately with sour cream. Pour into a greased 13x9 baking dish.

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over coffee cake. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Combine confectioners' sugar and milk; drizzle over warm coffee cake.
