Cinnamon Roll Cake

This cake is almost too easy to make.

It comes out scrumptious every time I make...which I am a bit embarrassed to say is more than ten times, at least.
If you have followed by blog at all, then you know that I have a soft spot for cinnamon rolls.
Take that goodness in a sliced cake form? Um...yes, please!
This is a super simple recipe that I believed originated from Pampered Chef, but I cannot confirm that exactly. But I know that it floats around on many cooking sites and blogs, and I figured, why not add it to mine?
Something that tastes this wonderful deserves to be shared over and over and over and over again until everyone finally breaks down and makes it!
I make it a lot for my grandpa, he really likes it.
But my daughter and even the hubs love this cake. So, you know it has to be good!
I'm sure you have everything on hand you need to make this cake and it is wonderful as a brunch item!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
