Notes

Per cake: heat oven to 375°F and grease a 9-inch square pan. Mix the cake mix, egg, milk, oil, and melted butter until just combined; spread in the pan. Sprinkle streusel evenly. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until a toothpick near the center comes out clean. Serve warm. Storage: dry mix and streusel separately airtight in a cool, dry place about 3 months; baked cake covered 2 days room temperature or 3 to 4 days refrigerated.
