Cinnamon Rolling

Almost two weeks ago now I teased that I'd be sharing a recipe. Well, it's finally time to reveal! Not too surprising considering most of the recipes I seem to make, it's a Mix and Match Mama Bundt Cake, more specifically a Cinnamon Roll Bundt Cake.

Cinnamon Roll Bundt Cake
Ingredients
For the Cake
1 box of white cake mix
2 small boxes of instant vanilla pudding
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/4 cups water
4 eggs
2 tablespoons cinnamon (divided) (The original recipe called for double this amount, but I only had enough for 2 tablespoons total. Actually it didn't feel like anything was missing with this amount, and it's likely what I'd add the next time I make this as well.)
1 cup brown sugar
For the Frosting
1 cups powdered sugar (I cut the amount of frosting in thirds since I've found Mix and Match Mama recipes tend to make far more frosting than I'd ever need... and I'm a frosting person!)
1 tablespoons milk

Directions
For the Cake
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix together cake mix, puddings, oil, water, eggs, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. (I did find this to be a lot thicker than normal cake dough, which did make it quite a bit harder to mix together.)
2. Combine the second tablespoon of cinnamon and brown sugar.
3. In a prepped bundt cake pan, add in half of the cake batter.
4. Top with sugar mixture. (I would actually try to keep it away from the edges as much as possible since the places with too much filling didn't really want to come out of the pan.)
5. Add in the remaining cake batter to the pan.
6. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
7. Invert onto serving platter to finish cooling. (Again you can see how the cake didn't really want to exit the pan and wound up cracking. But that didn't change how delicious it was.)
For the Frosting
8. Mix together milk and sugar till desired consistency, adding slightly more milk or sugar if necessary. Pour over warm cake.
Despite the fact the cake fell apart, it would up being incredibly awesome. But even more exciting, I had a bit of company in the kitchen.
This officially makes it our first mother/daughter baking adventure of I'm sure many to come.

Do you have a lot of memories baking or cooking with your parents growing up?
