Cinnabun Cake

Since I have been so busy with school, I realized I haven't baked since Easter! Well this morning I got that itch and broke out the ingredients! I had a huge craving for cinnamon buns but I really didn't feel like waiting for dough to rise. Enter, The Cinnabun Cake!! It tastes just like a cinnamon bun but sooo easy! 

Cinnabun Cake

Dough:
3 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla 
1/2 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine ingredients, adding melted last. 
Pour mixture into a greased pan.

Topping:
1 cup of butter, softened
1 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Drop mixture into the pan in spoonfuls. Then swirl the topping into the dough with a knife. Bake for 30 minutes.

Glaze:
2 cups icing sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
5 tablespoons milk

Whisk together and set aside.
When the cake comes out, pour glaze into top while it's still hot. 
This cake is delicious!! It totally hit the spot {especially when warm}! 
I added a handful of pecans to my cake just because I felt like it :)
