Favorite Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake

Ingredients
  

For the Cakes

  • 3 cup flour plus 2 tablepoons divided
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon

For the Icing

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • For the cake, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease two 8-inch cake pans, lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  • In mixer, blend 3 cup flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, milk, eggs, vanilla and 1/4 cup melted butter.
  • Divide batter evenly between cake pans.
  • In another mixing bowl, beat 1 cup butter with brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon. Continue to beat until fully blended and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  • Using two tablespoons, drop butter mixture onto cake batter. Use a knife to swirl.
  • Bake cakes for about 25-30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and cool in pans 10 minutes. Flip cakes out onto serving plates.
  • For icing, whisk the powdered sugar with 1/4 cup milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  • Drizzle over warm cakes.

Notes

I usually leave the cakes right in the cake pans and cut and serve from there.
As noted above, you can make this recipe using one 9x13 pan and it works great, as well.
