I am not a huge fan of cinnamon. However, I love the aroma of cinnamon. Imagine if you will, the smells of cinnamon, butter and vanilla, all together. It is quite a delicious aroma. That aroma will be drifting through your home, when you bake this. Actually, I would like a bubble bath in this scent. Ahhhhhhhhh, that would be heavenly. I must warn you….as delicious as this cake is, it is definitely not something you want to make frequently. It is loaded with butter, and sugar, and butter and more butter. So please proceed with caution!! LOL If you like cinnamon rolls, you will love this cake.
After you have enjoyed this very sweet treat, I highly recommend a treadmill or a 10 mile run. 🙂
Cinnamon Roll Cake
3 cups of flour
3/4 cup of sugar
1/4 tsp salt
4 teaspoons of baking powder
1 1/2 cups of milk
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 stick of butter, melted
Topping
2 sticks of softened butter
1 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
Glaze
2 cups of powdered sugar
5 tablespoons of milk
Preheat oven to 350. Mix flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, milk, eggs and vanilla together. Add the 1 stick of melted butter. Pour batter into a buttered 9×13 baking dish.
For the topping, mix the 2 sticks of butter, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour and cinnamon. Drop by spoonfuls over the cake batter. Use a knife to swirl through batter. Bake at 350 for about 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Mix the glaze ingredients together and drizzle over the warm cake. YOU MAY WANT TO USE THE GLAZE SPARINGLY, since this is a very sweet cake.

Hi. Either my bread pan isn’t a true bread pan size, or the recipe should be put into two pans. Mine overflowed! Luckily I put a cookie sheet under the pan. And the cook time was WAY under! I started with 30 min and have done at least 40 more minutes, and it still isn’t done.
It does smell AMAZING though! 😊
Use a 9x 13 cake pan. I just made this and baked for 30 min. Turned out perfect and yes it was amazing!
Is there anyway to Pin this recipe?
Hi Pat, do you have a PIN IT button on your screen? Im not very computer techy, sorry. You could go to my pinterest page where i also have the recipe. click on button below or go to https://www.pinterest.com/sugarbundle/
i hope this helps.
These turned out great!!. I altered baking time a little, mainly my Oven’s fault. 5-6 minutes was perfect.
hi Dorothy! oh i am so happy you liked it. I think i will make one in the morning.:) take care
Question… any guidance for how to make this using a loaf pan?
Hi Cindy, while i havent tried it in a loaf pan, i dont see why it wouldnt work, Of course the loaf pan is deeper so the cooking time would be longer…..maybe about 10 minutes more? i would check it with a long skewer after about 30 minutes. I cant see that it would get dry since its such a super moist cake. Let me know if you try it!! I may do so myself. If you would like me to do that i can and i will let you know before you try it. Just let me know. 🙂
Question! Can this be made the day before serving? Or is it recommended to be served immediately? I cannot wait to try this!
hi Lindsay! oh yes, it can be made before. You may wanna give it a quick zap in the microwave before serving. But really its good without microwaving it. Its so moist and buttery. Enjoy!!
We loved this on Christmas morning.
Hi Debbie, Im so happy you liked this! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and i wish you a great new year.
For the topping is the butter melted or softened or what ?
Hi erin, The butter is just softened. Thank you for asking. i will note that in the recipe! I hope you enjoy the cake
