======================
I always make my streusel with the food processor; you just have to know
when to stop, so it does not become overmixed; it only takes a few seconds.
I start the processor and then stop it often until it looks right. You also
might have had too much butter and/or not enough flour. Or possibly it
might have been the margarine you used. Did you use the sticks or the
container margarine; I use the sticks.
