Description

A decadent dessert that combines the flavors of cinnamon rolls with a moist poke cake, topped with a creamy frosting.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box vanilla cake mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare and bake the vanilla cake according to the package instructions in a 9×13-inch pan.
  2. In a bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter.
  3. Once the cake is baked, use the back of a spoon or a straw to poke holes all over the cake.
  4. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the cake, ensuring it seeps into the holes.
  5. Drizzle the cinnamon-sugar butter mixture over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
  6. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk, and continue beating until creamy.
  7. Spread the frosting over the cooled cake evenly.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the cake has cooled completely before frosting for best results.
  • This dessert can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.
