Ingredients

Yellow Cake

  • 1 box yellow cake mix 13 or 15 ounce
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup melted butter 1 1/2 sticks

Cinnamon Filling

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Vanilla Icing

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 18"x13"x1" half sheet pan.
  • Place all cake ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Scrape the sides of the bowl periodically to make sure everything is mixed in.
  • Pour half of the cake batter into the pan, spread evenly with a rubber spatula.
  • Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle mixture over cake batter.
  • Spoon remaining cake batter on top of the brown sugar/cinnamon mixture.
  • Spread cake batter with a metal spatula until the filling is covered. If the batter mixes a little with the brown sugar mixture, it's ok.
  • Bake the cake for 25-28 minutes. The inserted toothpick should come out clean.
  • Mix icing ingredients together and spread over warm cake.
  • Let cake cool COMPLETELY before slicing.
