Homemade Vanilla Cinnamon Cake with Cream Cheese Icing

I'm going to share with you this cake recipe I made today for my son's birthday. He wanted me to make him a cinnamon cake. Well,the kind from a box are good but....they crumble easy. So,I searched the Internet and found this recipe...I did tweak it a bit. He loves cream cheese anything so,I knew he would love the icing! The cake came out great! But it was heavy,not light like most of the cakes I make. The icing was really good,very rich though. But I didn't like the two together!! I know sounds crazy,but the cake was good just by itself and the icing I think would be better on a different cake!?!!?I don't know,maybe I'm just weird! But the kids really liked it,only one child couldn't eat it all because he said it was too rich. I think I will play around in the future to see if I can lighten it up a bit! Anyways hope you enjoy!! Please leave me a comment and let me know how you like it!! Thanks for stopping by!
