Ingredients
Backside Layer
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Prime Layer
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar

- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Glaze
- 2 cups confectioners’ sugar

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, 1 1/2 cups milk, 1 cup white sugar, 2 eggs, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well combined. Stir in 1/2 cup melted butter and pour the batter into the prepared pan.
In another bowl, beat 1 cup softened butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon until smooth. Drop spoonfuls of this mixture over the batter and swirl it with a knife to create a marbled effect.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out almost clean. While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by mixing 2 cups confectioners’ sugar, 5 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake and serve!
Enjoy this Cinnamon Roll Cake with a cup of coffee or tea for the perfect start to your day or as a sweet ending to any meal.
