Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 1.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 4 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1.25 cups White chocolate chips
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon powder (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk in two additions (start and end with the dry ingredients). Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the white chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed in the batter.

Step 7

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Once the cakes are fully cooled, prepare the frosting by combining powdered sugar with a touch of milk or butter (optional) to your desired consistency or use a frosting of choice. Spread the frosting between the cake layers and on top.

Step 11

For garnish, lightly dust the top of the cake with powdered cinnamon and optionally sprinkle additional white chocolate shavings.

Step 12

Serve immediately or store the cake in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or 5 days refrigerated.
