Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1½ cup milk
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 4 T butter melted
- 1 T cinnamon
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 3 cups flour

- 2 sticks 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
Glaze:
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions
First, preheat
the oven to 350 degrees. Using an electric mixer or a stand mixer, mix the
flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, milk, eggs and vanilla.
Once this is
combined, you slowly stir in 4 cups of melted butter. Pour the batter into a
greased 9 × 13-inch baking pan.
Then, in a
medium bowl, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and nuts if using
them. Place better on the cake in your 9 × 13 inch pan. Use a knife to smear
and swirl on the cake.
Bake 25 to
30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out almost clean from the center.
Make the
icing by adding the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla in a medium bowl. Whisk
until smooth and drizzle with a hot cake. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Happy Cooking Time.
