Strawberry Coffee Cake

½ Cup Sugar
1 Cup Flour
2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
½ Cup Milk
1 Egg, beaten
2 Tablespoons Butter or Margarine, melted
1 ½ Cups washed, hulled and sliced fresh strawberries
Topping:
½ Cup Flour
½ Cup Sugar
¼ Cup Butter, softened
¼ Cup Chopped Nuts

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. In large mixing bowl, combine sugar, flour, baking powder, milk, egg and butter. With electric mixer on medium, beat 2 minutes until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pan; arrange strawberries evenly over batter. To make topping, in a medium bowl combine flour and sugar. With pastry blender or two knives used scissor-fashion, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in nuts. Sprinkle topping evenly over strawberries. Bake 35-40 minutes. Serve warm or cooled.
