cinnamon roll cake.


Cinnamon Roll Cake from Brittany:
via pinterest, the girl who ate everything and cooking up north (and my mother-in-law)

Cake:
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup (1 stick) real butter, melted

Topping:
1 cup (2 sticks) real butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2 T flour
1 T cinnamon
3/4 cup chopped pecans, optional... measure, then chop

Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
5 T milk
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 350. In an electric mixer combine flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, milk, eggs and vanilla. Slowly stir in melted butter. Pour batter into a greased 9x13 pan.

In a large bowl, mix the 2 sticks of softened butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and pecans until well combined. Drop evenly over cake batter by the spoonful and use a knife to marble/swirl through the cake.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean from center.

Place powdered sugar, milk and vanilla in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth. Drizzle over warm cake. Serve warm or at room temperature.
