Cinnamon Roll Bars

(Recipe taken from http://sorumblyinmytumbly.blogspot.com/2012/05/cinnamon-roll-cookie-bars.html )

Ingredients:

For the bars:
18.25 oz box of yellow cake mix (I used Betty Crocker)
1/2 cup of melted butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup of granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon

For the topping:
1/4 cup of granulated sugar (I used 2 Tablespoons sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon)
1/2 tsp cinnamon

For the icing:
2 cups of powdered sugar (I halved the recipe for the icing and drizzled over bars)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2-3 Tablespoons milk or cream

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350° (my oven was 300* for 27 minutes)

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, butter, eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Mix until combined. Batter will be thick-- if you're mixing by hand instead of with a mixer, you will get a little bit of a work out. ;)

Fit a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with a foil sling or a parchment paper sling and then spray with no-stick cooking spray.

Using your clean fingers, press the batter into the pan. I find I have the best luck if I get my fingers a little bit wet while I do this. It doesn't need to be perfectly smooth.

Mix the sugar and cinnamon for the topping together and sprinkle over the top of the bars.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bars comes out clean. It is okay if they look slightly underbaked-- it will make them all the fudgier after they've cooled.

Mix the icing ingredients together. Add the milk slowly until you reach your desired consistency for your glaze. Everyone likes it differently, I like mine on the thinner side.

Spread the glaze over warm (not hot) bars. Cool completely and serve. Enjoy!

Thanks Jenna! This is the first one that my kids tried, after it was finished they asked me to get the recipe so I could make it for them. I guess we all like gooey cinnamon at my house. :o)
