Ingredients
  

  • 1, 15 Oz Box Of Yellow Cake Mix 
  • 4 Eggs
  • ⅔ Cups Vegetable Oil
  • 8 Oz Sour Cream
  • ¾ Cups Brown Sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1, ½ Cups Powdered Sugar 
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Milk

Instructions
 

  • Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and sour cream. Mix with a hand mixer until everything is fully combined.
  • Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the batter in the dish.
  • Pour the remaining batter over the cinnamon sugar layer. Use a spoon or knife to spread it out evenly.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake is no longer jiggly in the middle.
  • Let the cake cool for 30-45 minutes.
  • While the cake cools, mix the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a medium bowl. Stir until smooth. If the icing is too thick, add a little more milk.
  • Once the cake is cool, pour the icing over the top and spread it out evenly.
  • Let the icing harden for about 25 minutes. You can speed this up by placing the cake in the fridge.
  • Slice the cake into 12 pieces and serve.

Notes

Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This helps the batter mix evenly for a fluffier cake.
Don’t Overmix: Mix the batter just until combined to keep the cake light and tender.
Swirl, Don’t Mix: Gently swirl the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture into the batter for the best marbled effect.
Pour the Glaze Warm: Let the glaze soak into the warm cake for the ultimate moistness
