Cinnamon Swirl Cake

This recipe is from Jamie Taylor, one of the founders of Flirty Aprons, who happened to live in our ward in Provo for a while. She brought it to a Relief Society meeting and it was a hit!

This is what we often take when we need to contribute a dessert to a school or church function. Yum!!

Cake:
3 C flour
1 C sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 C milk
1 cube(1/2 C) butter, melted

Cinnamon Swirl:
1 cube(1/2 C) butter, melted
2/3 C brown sugar
1 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp cinnamon

Glaze:
2-3 C powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla
Enough milk to make an icing consistency
(Optional-Jamie adds another 1/2 cube butter, but I don't)

Mix the first 4 ingredients of cake. Add next 4 ingredients and mix well. Pour batter into greased 9x13 pan. Mix cinnamon swirl ingredients in a small bowl, pour over cake. Swirl or marble it with a knife, being careful not to blend it too much. 
Bake at 375 for 25 minutes. 
While cake is baking mix the glaze ingredients. Remove cake from oven, pour glaze over it while hot and poke holes in it using a skewer so that the glaze will sink in.
Enjoy!!
