Hi I was looking for a cinnamon bun recipe from woman's world with a cream cheese icing. The recipe was in a magazine from atleast 5 years ago maybe six or seven. If anyone can help that would be fantastic. Thank you.

Woman's World magazine Cinnamon Bun Cake

I found this in Woman's World magazine and made it for Easter.

This is like a combination of a cake and cinnamon bun all in one...

50 min 20 min prep

BROWN SUGAR LAYERS

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup butter (room temperature)

CAKE

1 (18 ounce) box package yellow cake mix

3 eggs

1/3 cup oil

1 cup sour cream

BROWN SUGAR SWIRLS

3 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1 cup cake batter

FROSTING

Cream Cheese Frosting

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

1/4 cup butter

2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

1 tsp vanilla

Combine the cream cheese, butter sugar and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Beat well until blended and smooth. This should be enough to fill and frost a two-layer 8-inch cake.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease WELL 2 9" round cake pans.

For Brown Sugar Layer combine ingredients and spread into each pan to within 2 inches of the edge.

Combine all the ingredients for the cake and mix on medium speed until fluffy, approximately 2 minutes. Pour one cup batter into separate bowl and divide remaining batter into the pans.

For Brown Sugar Swirls combine the reserved batter with cinnamon and brown sugar. Drop by tablespoons onto the batter in the pans. Swirl, being careful not to stir up the brown sugar layer.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes then remove and cool on racks.

Place one cake sugar side up on plate and frost the center. Top with remaining cake, sugar side down and frost the rest of the cake.
