The best Cinnamon roll cake

 

This cinnamon cake is so delicious and easy to make, it is basically a deconstructed cinnamon roll in a cake. OMG! so so so good! It is perfect to have with coffee or milk. The cake itself is so fluffy and moist and with the cinnamon mixture topped with the icing it is just devine and full of flavours.
I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
