Crummmmb Cake

What makes this cake so exciting is the textures, with the soft + tender cake on the bottom combining with the buttery, crumbly crumbs on top. What makes it even better is that it takes no time to make, and uses a bunch of pantry basics. Brb, I’m actually going to be eating alllll of the cake I just baked.
