For the Cake:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder.
-
Add the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth.
-
Stir in the melted butter until well combined.
For the Cinnamon Filling:
-
In another bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, flour, and ground cinnamon until it forms a crumbly texture.
Assembly:
-
Spread half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan.
-
Sprinkle the cinnamon filling evenly over the batter.
-
Dollop the remaining cake batter on top of the cinnamon filling. Use a knife to swirl the batter and filling together.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
-
While the cake is baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
-
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined. Add milk as needed to reach your desired frosting consistency.
-
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
-
Spread the cream cheese frosting over the warm cake. It will melt slightly and create a delicious glaze.
-
Slice and serve your Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll Cake while it’s still warm for the best flavor.
