How to Make Rippled Cinnamon Bun Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, prepare your cake mix according to package directions, substituting sour cream for the water and adding 2 large eggs.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until smooth.
  4. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Evenly spread the brown sugar-cinnamon mixture over the batter.
  5. Pour the remaining cake batter over the cinnamon swirl. Gently swirl the batter with a knife or toothpick for a marbled effect.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before frosting.
  8. Prepare the vanilla icing by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and spreadable. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
  9. Frost the cooled cake and let it set before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
