Cinnamon Supper Cake





This recipe comes from a Penzeys catalog. It was so good, my son asked if I would make this for his birthday cake.

I love simple cakes such as this one. I always enjoy looking through my Penzy's catalog when it arrives - the recipes are so down to earth.

Ohhhhh, I bet that cinnamon topping would go GREAT on so many other things - muffins, cheesecake, cupcakes, you name it!
