cinnamon streusel yogurt cake

thursday night seems to roll around quickly nowadays! i decided to make it easy on myself this week and jazz up an old recipe. my yogurt cake is always a hit for thursday nite guy's night. when i run out of ideas for dessert, i can throw together that cake and all is well. but i decided to add some bling to the regular old cake by means of streusel topping. let's just say that i don't know if i will be able to go back to plain ol' yogurt cake for a while. this cake blew us a way. maybe i should take note and jazz up somethings on me, huh? nah. 🙂
