Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box vanilla cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup cinnamon rolls (prepared and cubed)
  • 1 cup cream cheese frosting
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional for topping)

  3. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.
  4. Bake the cake according to the package instructions until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
  6. While the cake is still warm, poke holes all over the top using a fork.
