Ingredients
CAKE
- 1 .25 ounce white cake mix prepare as directed on the box
GLAZE
- 5 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
FROSTING
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Half & Half
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Prepare the cake as directed on the cake box. Allow the baked cake to cool until it is just warm.
- Poke holes all around the cake using the handle of a wooden spoon or a spatula with the holes spaced about ½ inch apart.
- In a medium size heat-safe mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, 5 tablespoons of butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Microwave on high for 1 minute then stir well. Return the bowl to the microwave and heat for another minute and stir well until the brown sugar is well combined into the glaze.
- Pour the glaze evenly over the warm cake.
- Add the cream cheese and 1/2 cup butter to a large mixing bowl and beat together with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add the vanilla extract, half & half, and 1/2 cup of the powdered sugar and beat on low speed with the electric mixer until combined. Continue beating the frosting and adding the remaining powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until all sugar is combined and the frosting is smooth.
- Spread the cream cheese frosting over the cake with a spatula. Sprinkle the top of the cake with additional cinnamon, if desired. Slice the cake into squares and serve.
