Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, milk, and vanilla, and mix until combined.
- Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix; keep it light and fluffy!
- In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Pour the melted butter into this mixture and stir until it forms a thick paste.
Baking
- Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread the cinnamon swirl mixture evenly on top of it, then pour the remaining cake batter over the swirl.
- Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl the batter to create a marbled effect.
- Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Glazing
- While the cake is baking, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Once the cake is done, allow it to cool for about 10 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top.
Notes
For a lighter option, consider using Greek yogurt or a dairy-free milk alternative in place of regular milk. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
