- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (preheat to 325 degrees F for a glass pan). Lightly grease 9X13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

For the cake, in a large bowl, combine all the cake batter ingredients and mix well. The batter will incorporate more smoothly with room temperature ingredients. A few small lumps are ok.
- 3
For the cinnamon swirl, stir together the granulated sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon until well-combined.
- 4
To assemble, spread half the cake batter in the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the cake batter.
- 5
Dollop the remaining cake batter over the top and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture over the top.
- 6
Use a butter knife to make a large “W” shape across the batter and then make a 2 or 3 long slashes the length of the pan. Don't over-slash the batter or the swirl will be muddled as it bakes.
- 7
Bake the cake for 30 to 35 minutes until the top springs back lightly to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Add time as needed (it's likely, you'll need to add a few minutes if baking at 325 degrees F in a glass pan).

For the glaze, add the cream cheese and butter to a medium bowl and mix with an electric mixer until well-combined. Add the vanilla and mix until combined.
- 9
Add one cup of the powdered sugar. Mix. Add the remaining powdered sugar and mix until evenly combined.
- 10
Whisk in the milk, a tablespoon at at time, until the glaze is thick but pourable.
- 11
Let the cake cool for 10 to 15 minutes. Drizzle the glaze evenly over the warm cake. Serve extra glaze over individual pieces, if desired.
- 12
Serve warm or at room temperature (delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream).
