Cinnamon Roll Pound Cake
What you need:
For the cake:
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter (3 sticks), at room temperature
- 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 6 large eggs
- 3 cups cake flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
For the cinnamon swirl:
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
For the frosting:
- 2 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
- 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp. vanilla
Directions:
- Grease a bundt pan with nonstick spray or Crisco and a light dusting of flour (I personally would go the Crisco route so your cake doesn't stick).
- For the cake: Beat butter in a stand mixer with a whisk attachment on HIGH for 1 minute.
- Slowly add granulated sugar and mix for 5 minutes until very pale and fluffy.
- On MEDIUM, add one egg at a time, mixing until incorporated and scraping down the sides of the mixer bowl as needed.
- On LOW, add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined.
- Then add sour cream, oil, and vanilla until just combined.
- For the cinnamon swirl: Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl.
- Pour half of the batter into the bundt pan. Drizzle half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over the top. Use a knife to swirl the cinnamon mixture into the batter.
- Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon swirl mixture.
- Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then invert onto a serving platter. Let cool to room temperature.
- For the frosting: Beat cream cheese and butter together in a stand mixer with a whisk attachment for about 2 minutes.
- On LOW, add powdered sugar and mix until incorporated. Beat on MEDIUM for 1 minute.
- Add milk and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
- Pour frosting on the top of the cake once the cake has cooled.
