Cinnabon® Cinnamon Roll Cake

My mom always gets a ton of compliments and recipe requests when she brings this cake to a gathering.

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ cups milk
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 2 cups confectioners' sugar
• 5 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2. Mix 3 cups flour, milk, white sugar, eggs, baking powder, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl until well-combined. Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
3. Beat 1 cup softened butter, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon together in a large bowl until smooth. Drop by spoonfuls over the batter in the baking pan. Swirl the top layer into the bottom layer with a knife to create a marble effect.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out nearly clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
5. Mix confectioners' sugar, milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a large bowl until smooth. Drizzle over warm cake.
