  • 1 (15.25 oz.) box vanilla cake mix (could use white or yellow mix as well)
  • 1 (3.4 oz.) package vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Icing:

  • 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup warm milk, plus more, if needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

PREPARATION

  1. Preheat oven to 350º F and lightly grease a 13×18-inch dish with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl or mixer, whisk together vanilla cake mix and instant pudding mix together until combined, then beat in eggs, one at a time, oil, milk, sour cream (or yogurt, if using) and vanilla extract.
  3. Once batter comes together (without over-mixing), pour into baking sheet.
  4. In a microwaveable bowl, combine butter, brown sugar and cinnamon, and microwave until melted and smooth.
  5. Pour mixture over cake batter, then use a knife to swirl mixture into cake. Be careful not to swirl mixture too much, or it won’t look as marbled.
  6. Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  7. While cake bakes, in a bowl or mixer, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then gradually beat in milk until desired consistency is reached.
  8. Remove cake from oven and let cool 10-15 minutes before pouring icing over. Slice, serve and enjoy!
