Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 eggs
• 0.75 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter (for topping)
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar (optional for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
• 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.

Step 5

Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon to create the cinnamon-sugar topping.

Step 7

Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the first layer of batter.

Step 8

Pour the remaining batter over the cinnamon-sugar layer and spread evenly. Then sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.

Step 9

Melt the unsalted butter (for topping) and drizzle it evenly over the entire cake.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 11

Optional: While the cake is baking, make the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake after it cools for 10 minutes.

Step 12

Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
