This recipe looks yummy however the cooking time doesn't sound right.
The additional 20 minutes for the crumb topping after the cake is done seems excessive especially since the cake is baked in a cookie pan .

Hi Sandi,

If you want to bake the topping for a little less time than the recipe calls for, keep an eye on it as it bakes and remove it from the oven when the topping appears bubbly and melted. It won't hurt anything to remove it too soon since the cake is already baked.
