Coffee Cake Mom Style

This was a recipe of a wintertime childhood favorite - coffee cake that my Mom used to make and serve at breakfast.  From a folded out envelope, I typed out what I could read of the ingredients and instructions.  Nothing better on a cold winter morning.  I think I might have misread the instructions.  The butter, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract are not mixed into the flour but drizzled onto the cake dough.  The crossed out sugar ingredient in the cake dough might be 3 tsp sugar?
