THE Recipe...Cinnamon Roll Cake

By popular demand...the recipe for the Oh-So-Sinful Cinnamon Roll cake. Notice that I didn't say "MY" recipe.  I found this delicious confection on Pinterest...the home of all things wonderful.  Anyhoo, to tell you just how good this cake is, the first time I made it, Brennan declared it to be his favorite cake and now wants it for his birthday cake...forever and all eternity.  Wow.  I thought nothing could replace Coconut Cream Pie!  It's been the reigning champ for years!

Now, I give thee free license to cook this as much as you want, but you have to pinkie promise to not bring it to bible studies or Sunday school classes I am in because it's kinda my "go to" dessert.  LOL!
