Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to incorporate until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and half of the toffee bits (3/4 cup). This will be your streusel layer.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over the batter, creating an even layer.
Pour the remaining batter on top of the streusel layer and spread it evenly.
Top with the remaining streusel mixture and sprinkle the rest of the toffee bits on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar and milk until smooth and drizzle consistency is achieved.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake before serving.
Slice and enjoy your Heath Bar Toffee Coffee Cake with a fresh cup of coffee!
