    Moist Lemon Pound Cake With Lemon Glaze
    My lemon pound cake is moist and tangy, with all the sweet flavors of a Starbucks lemon loaf, only better. This easy lemon cake recipe is swirled with homemade lemon curd throughout and bursting with the flavor of real lemon zest.
    In true pound cake fashion, this cake is rich and dense, yet perfectly balanced with the brightness of the citrus. I top my moist lemon loaf with creamy limoncello glaze. It’s one of my favorite treats to enjoy in the afternoon with coffee or tea, or for dessert (and let’s be honest, sometimes both).  

    Why You’ll Love This Pound Cake Recipe
    If you love lemon desserts as much as I do, prepare to be hooked by this luscious lemon pound cake! Here are just a few reasons to love it:

    Homemade lemon curd. This pound cake is swirled with ribbons of my homemade lemon curd recipe throughout a soft, buttery lemon crumb. It’s surprisingly easy to make your own lemon curd from scratch!
    Limoncello glaze. I make a super simple lemon glaze for this pound cake by combining powdered sugar with limoncello liqueur. It’s a delicious, adult twist with loads of sweet, lemony flavor. Of course, you can opt to make a lemon glaze sans alcohol if you prefer. 
    Perfect for brunch or dessert. This pound cake is versatile enough to make for a light afternoon treat, a sweet addition at brunch, or an easy dessert to take along to any occasion. 

    Why Is It Called Pound Cake?
    Pound Cake dates back to the early 1700s and it’s named after how the recipe was originally made: with one pound each of flour, butter, sugar, and eggs. Traditionally, pound cakes are baked in either a loaf pan, like in this recipe, or in a bundt pan, like my 7UP Pound Cake.
    People sometimes confuse pound cake with sponge cake. And it’s true, both recipes have many ingredients in common. One main difference is that sponge cakes call for whipping the eggs in the recipe separately, resulting in the cake’s “spongy” texture.

    What You’ll Need
    I buck tradition with this lemon pound cake recipe. Rather than add a full pound of each ingredient, I’ve adapted things a little, with awesome results (if I do say so myself). Below is a short overview of the ingredients you’ll need, with the full recipe details available in the recipe card.

    Eggs: For structure and richness in the cake.
    Milk: You can use whole milk or 2% milk in this recipe, either one is fine.
    Sugar: For the most consistent results, use regular granulated sugar.
    Lemon Zest: Fresh lemon zest is a must! You’ll get the best flavor from lemons when they’re in season.
    Vanilla: Skip using imitation vanilla and use real vanilla extract. The flavor is so much better!
    Oil: I add liquid coconut oil to my cake batter, though another type of oil, like vegetable oil, will also work. Adding oil in place of butter yields a lighter, more tender cake crumb.
    Baking Powder and Salt: For leavening and to balance the sweetness.
    Flour: I recommend using all-purpose flour.
    Lemon Curd: I use my recipe for easy Homemade Lemon Curd and swirl it all throughout the pound cake. So dreamy! If you’re pressed for time, you can also use your favorite brand of store-bought lemon curd.
    Powdered Sugar: You’ll whip together an easy glaze using powdered sugar, also called confectioner’s sugar, combined with lemon liqueur.
    Limoncello: This is an Italian lemon liqueur made from lemon zest and sugar with a sweet, intense lemon flavor. You’ll find Limoncello in most liquor stores throughout the US. If you don’t have it or aren’t a fan, use a bit of fresh lemon juice and/or zest instead to amp up the lemon flavor in the glaze.

    How to Make Lemon Pound Cake
    While the oven preheats to 350ºF, grease and line your loaf pan. I recommend lining it with a piece of parchment paper cut to fit into the bottom of the pan, long enough so that the edges hang over each end. This makes it easy to lift the pound cake from the pan once it’s baked. Next, you’ll whip up the easy lemon pound cake batter:

    Combine the Ingredients: First, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, lemon zest, and vanilla into a smooth batter. Next, stream in the coconut oil while continuing to whisk, followed by the baking powder and salt. Lastly, stir in your flour. It’s fine if your batter looks a bit lumpy, be careful that you don’t overmix!
    Fill the Pan: Add about 3/4 of the cake batter to your prepared pan, drizzle the top with half of your lemon curd, and then add the remaining batter and another drizzle of curd. Take care that the curd doesn’t touch the edges of the pan, as the sugar will burn if it bakes against the hot sides. 

    Swirl and Bake: Use a butter knife to swirl the lemon curd lightly through the batter. Bake your lemon pound cake at 350ºF for 50-55 minutes, then leave it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Afterward, lift the cake out of the pan and place it on a wire rack.
    Prepare the Glaze: Make a quick lemon glaze by combining powdered sugar with a couple of spoonfuls of limoncello. Whisk until you reach a smooth consistency.
    Glaze and Cool: Finally, pour the glaze over the pound cake while the cake is still slightly warm. Let the cake finish cooling before slicing and serving. See below for some of my favorite serving ideas.

    Tips for the Best Pound Cake
    Follow these final tips for the best homemade lemon pound cake:

    You can make this pound cake in a bundt pan. Be sure to generously grease and flour the pan so that your lemon bundt cake pops out easily.
    Use fresh lemon juice. I’m talking freshly squeezed. Don’t use bottled lemon juice as the flavor just won’t be the same. And while you’re at it, don’t skip the lemon zest!
    Keep the curd away from the edges of the pan. I mention it earlier, but try your best to not let the lemon curd touch the sides of the pan when you’re swirling it in. This way the sugars won’t burn.
    If the lemon glaze for your pound cake is too thin, whisk in additional powdered sugar a little at a time to thicken it. If it’s too thick, add more Limoncello to get it to a pourable consistency.
    Pound cake is meant to be a little dense. However, it shouldn’t be dry or heavy. If your pound cake is dry, this could be the result of overbaking, or because you added too much flour. 
    On that note, make sure to measure the ingredients correctly. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, I recommend the spoon-and-sweep method where you spoon ingredients like flour into your measuring cup and use the back of a knife to level it off.

    Variation Ideas
    Looking to change things up with your lemon pound cake? Try these easy recipe variations:

    Substitute the Lemon Curd: If you’re looking to substitute the lemon curd in this recipe, try lemon pie filling or lemon marmalade instead.
    Different Fruit Preserves: You can also replace the lemon filling altogether with fruit jam or preserves like strawberry jam, or raspberry jam for a lemon raspberry cake.
    Add Berries: For even more summery vibes, add fresh seasonal blueberries for an easy lemon blueberry pound cake. Tossing your berries in flour before folding them into the batter will help to keep them from settling at the bottom of the cake. 
    Add Poppy Seeds: Stir in poppy seeds for a variation of my Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake.
    Skip the Glaze: If you’d prefer to leave your pound cake unglazed, you can always dust the top with powdered sugar instead.

    Serving Suggestions
    This is a fun and easy cake recipe to make for brunch or as a light dessert. We’ll enjoy a slice of zesty lemon pound cake in the summertime with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. So delicious! I’ll even double up on the fruity flavors with a drizzle of Strawberry Syrup. It’s the perfect summer dessert to bring to Fourth of July BBQs and picnics. 
    Serve your lemon pound cake for Easter brunch alongside other homemade treats like Cinnamon Rolls and Hot Cross Buns. Or, do as I do, and simply tuck into a slice while passing through the kitchen. It’s really the best dessert for any occasion!

    How to Store Lemon Pound Cake
    Keep your lemon pound cake airtight at room temperature for up to 4 days. Pound cake has a tendency to dry out when stored in the fridge.
    Can I Freeze Pound Cake?
    Yes, once the glazed cake is completely cooled, wrap your pound cake tightly in plastic wrap, plus a layer of foil. You can freeze this cake whole or in easy grab-and-go slices. Freeze it for up to 3 months, and defrost the cake at room temperature before serving.

    Lemon Pound Cake

    Author: Shelly

    Prep Time: 10 minutes

    Cook Time: 55 minutes

    Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes

    Yield: 6 servings 1x

    Category: Cake

    Method: Oven

    Cuisine: American

    Description

    This fluffy Lemon Pound Cake recipe is filled with fresh lemon flavor and ribbons of tangy lemon curd. Topped with a sweet lemon glaze made with limoncello liqueur!

    Ingredients

    Scale
    1x2x3x

    2 large eggs
    3/4 cup milk
    3/4 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 cup coconut oil, in liquid state
    3/4 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup lemon curd

    Limoncello Glaze

    1 cup powdered sugar
    3 tablespoons Limoncello (or fresh lemon juice)

    Instructions

    Lemon Pound Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F/175°C
    Spray a 9×5 loaf pan with nonstick spray. Lay a strip cut to fit the bottom of the pan with parchment paper, so the paper hangs over the ends. Spray the parchment paper with nonstick spray. Set the pan aside.
    In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, zest and vanilla until smooth and combined.
    Slowly stream in the coconut oil, whisking consistently until combined.
    Add in the baking powder and salt and whisk until combined.
    Finally stir in the flour until just incorporated. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
    Spread 3/4 of the batter into the prepared pan. Drizzle 1/2 of the lemon curd on top of the batter, keeping it away from the edges.. Top with the remaining batter and then the remaining curd, also being careful not to let the curd touch the edges of the pan. The curd will burn if it’s exposed to the edge of the pan.
    Using a butter knife swirl the curd into the batter.
    Bake for 50-55 minutes until a tooth pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to glaze.
    Limoncello Glaze: To prepare the glaze whisk the powdered sugar and Limoncello together until smooth. Pour this on your warm cake.
    Allow the glaze to set before slicing.

    22 Strawberry Desserts to Make This Summer
    Are you ready? Because I’m about to sweeten up your summer! It’s strawberry season, and that means strawberry desserts. I’m slowly finding ways to work fresh, flavorful strawberries into all my baking these days. Zero regrets! Naturally, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite summer strawberry recipes to inspire you to do the same.
    These summer desserts are loaded with enough strawberries to make any berry lover swoon. From strawberry cakes to cool and creamy frozen treats, pies, strawberry shortcake, and more delicious recipes, there are so many ways to transform seasonal strawberries into the BEST desserts. These recipes have you covered from Memorial Day until Labor Day, all summer long.
    I’ve also thrown in some of my best tips for choosing the ripest strawberries when they’re in season, how to store them, and even how to freeze them!
    Why You’ll Love These Strawberry Recipes
    In case you couldn’t tell, I’m berry excited about the strawberry season. Here’s why you’ll love these recipes:

    Easy to make. Who doesn’t love a dessert that tastes amazing, that’s also stress-free? These strawberry recipes keep it simple while oozing fresh summer flavors in every bite.
    Vibrant flavors. The ripest strawberries bring all sorts of delicious sweetness and freshness to these easy dessert ideas. Not to mention a pop of rosy color!
    Perfect for summer. Strawberries are a surefire sign that summer is here. Take these desserts along with you to cookouts, parties, or make them just because. These are the perfect recipes to satisfy your sweet tooth all season long.

    When Are Strawberries in Season?
    So, what are the best months for strawberries? For most of the US, strawberries are in peak season from mid-May to early June. This of course can vary a bit depending on which part of the country you’re in. As soon as berry season arrives, you best believe I’m first in line at my local farm stall.

    How to Pick Strawberries at the Store
    Get in, we’re going strawberry shopping! But how do you know if you’re picking the right berries? Below are my tips for choosing the very best strawberries:

    Color and Plumpness: Look for bright, plump berries that are red from top to bottom. Unlike some other fruits, strawberries don’t ripen after they’re picked. If the strawberries have a lot of yellow and green shading, they’ll stay that way and won’t be as sweet. And if the berries look dry or shriveled at all, give them a pass.
    Leaves: Fresh green leaves = fresh strawberries. Dry, wilted leaves indicate that the berries were picked a while ago.
    Signs of Mold: It probably goes without saying, but if any of the strawberries are moldy, it’s best to pick another box. Mold means that the berries are going bad, even if some of them aren’t spoiled just yet.

    How to Store and Freeze Fresh Strawberries
    Now that you’ve selected the best strawberries of the bunch, make sure you store them properly. It’s easy to do:

    Store: Store your strawberries in the fridge until you’re ready to wash and eat them. It’s best to leave strawberries whole and unwashed when you store them so that they aren’t exposed to moisture. To prolong the life of your fresh strawberries, store them in a single layer inside an airtight container lined with a paper towel. Properly stored strawberries can last in the fridge for a week (or sometimes longer).
    Freeze: Fresh strawberries can be frozen either whole or chopped. Before you freeze your berries, remove the stems, then flash-freeze the berries on a baking sheet. Once solid, transfer the frozen berries to a freezer bag or airtight container. They’ll stay fresh for up to 6 months. Frozen strawberries are perfect to use in everything from smoothies to pies.
    Wash: Place your fresh berries into a colander and give them a good rinse under cold water before you eat them.

    Lemon Curd Recipe

    My Lemon Curd is a delicious homemade recipe that consists of lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, sugar and butter. Perfect to use in baked goods, as well as a spread on biscuits or pancakes! 

    Table of Contents

    My Homemade Lemon Curd Recipe Is Easy And Delicious!
    If there’s one thing that can brighten up any dessert or breakfast spread, it’s the tangy citrus sweetness of homemade lemon curd. With its silky texture and vibrant flavor, lemon curd is a versatile treat that can be used as a filling for cakes, a topping for pancakes, a spread for scones, or simply enjoyed on its own by the spoonful…which I am definitely guilty of!
    I love a lemon recipe, which is tough in my house, because I am the only one. I have tons of lemon recipes here on my site that I adore, but have to share with friends and family just to get them out of my house…otherwise I’ll eat them all! Regardless of that I won’t ever stop making them because I know you love them too! SO today we’re making Homemade Lemon Curd, and I’ve learned some tips and tricks that I’m excited to share with you.
    What Is Lemon Curd?
    It is a creamy, citrus-based sweet spread or filling. Think of it a lot like a jam or jelly, but perfectly smooth, almost like the filling of a lemon meringue pie. The process of making lemon curd involves cooking the lemon juice, zest, sugar, and eggs together until thickened to create a luscious and velvety consistency. The addition of butter make sit rich and silky, make it a true sweet treat. How you use is it totally up to you, but I especially love spreading it in cakes along with buttercream. The two paired together is outrageous. 
    Only 5 Ingredients Needed!
    The ingredient list is simple: lemons, granulated sugar, unsalted butter, eggs, and salt. Beyond fresh lemons you most likely have all the other ingredients in your kitchen right now! And don’t skip using fresh lemon juice…the bottled juice is fine in a pinch for recipes, but fresh is best for this recipe. 
    TIP: Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature! Everything will thicken up smoother and nicer with room temperature butter, eggs, and lemon juice!

    Special Tools:
    There is nothing out of the ordinary needed for to make this recipe, but having the proper equipment is always a key to success. Nothing on this list is necessary to make this recipe, they are all just helpful tools!

    Zester. A zester is a very common kitchen tool, and if you don’t have one, I highly recommend it. They are inexpensive and perfect for grating zest from citrus fruits as well as Parmesan cheese! If you don’t have one, use any fine grater you have. 
    Lemon Squeezer. This is TOTALLY optional, but I will say that once i bought one I can’t imagine not having it. I use my squeezer WAY more than I thought I would. It makes squeezing lemons/limes/small oranges SO easy and gets out way more juice from the fruit than I ever got out by hand. Plus is catches all the seeds!
    Ceramic coated, or porcelain heavy bottomed saucepan or Dutch Oven. I recommend (if possible) not using a metal saucepan for lemon curd. You can and it will be fine…I do from time to time (as you see in my pictures). But using a metal pan can sometimes give your lemon curd a metallic flavor as the citrus reacts to the metal. I’ll hit on this a little later, but it’s just a tip to note. 
    Silicone whisk. Like I said above, metal can react with the citrus, so use a silicone whisk if you have one. 
    Strainer. If you want impossibly smooth lemon curd, go ahead and strain it!

    How to Make Lemon Curd:
    Prep: In a small saucepan/Dutch oven over medium heat, whisk your eggs, sugar, salt, and lemon juice together until combined.

    Cook: Add in the butter and lemon juice and cook the mixture at medium-low heat until it’s thickened. You will need to whisk it consistently, so don’t leave it alone! This step will take 10-ish minutes. But you will know when it starts to thicken, and an easy test is to see if the curd coats the back of a spoon, a lot like syrup would.  If not cook a little longer.

    Chill: Transfer the curd to a small glass bowl. If you are choosing to strain it, this is when you would do that. Allow the curd to cool at room temperature for 15 minutes or so, and then press a piece of plastic wrap gently into the top and pop it into the fridge until completely chilled. The custard texture will continue to thicken as it chills.

    Why Does My Lemon Curd Taste Metallic?
    The use of uncoated aluminum cookware/utensils is probably the culprit. Lemon juice is highly acidic and can react with uncoated aluminum cookware, leading to a metallic taste in the lemon curd. To avoid this, use cookware that is coated or made of non-reactive materials, for example a silicone whisk and a ceramic coated Dutch oven are easy alternatives. 
    TIP: If you don’t have a ceramic coated pot you can use a double boiler. Place a heat-safe glass bowl on top of a bowl of simmering water and whisk until thickened.
    What to Do If Your Curd Won’t Thicken 
    If you’re lemon curd isn’t thickening, there are a few reasons that are possible:

    Not enough cooking time. Continue cooking and whisking the lemon curd…it will eventually thicken!
    The ratio of eggs, sugar, butter, and lemon juice in the recipe is crucial for the proper thickening of lemon curd. We have all mis-measured in the past, even when you think you are being the most careful…just double check you didn’t use extra large eggs, or too much juice!
    The heat is too high or too low: Cooking lemon curd at too high or too low heat can affect its thickening. If the heat is too high, the eggs can scramble too quickly, resulting in a curd that won’t thicken properly. If the heat is too low, the curd may take longer to thicken or not thicken at all. Make sure to cook the lemon curd over low to medium heat as per the recipe instructions.

    Why Strain Your Lemon Curd?
    This is an optional step that helps ensure a smooth and velvety texture, free of any lumps or bits of cooked egg. Here’s how:

    Place a fine mesh sieve or strainer over a glass bowl. 
    Once your lemon curd is cooked and thickened, remove it from the heat and carefully pour it through the strainer. Any lumps or bits of zest will catch in the strainer. 
    Discard any bits the strainer caught!

    Ways to Use Lemon Curd:

    As a Spread: It is commonly used as a spread on toast, English muffins, scones, biscuits, or pancakes. For breakfast try mixing it into yogurt, on French Toast, or as a filling in crepes!
    In Desserts: It can be used as a filling in pies, tarts, or cakes. It can also be used as a layer in parfaits, trifles, or cakes.
    As a Dip or Sauce: Lemon curd can be used as a dip for fruits, cookies, or even savory items like chicken tenders. It can also be used as a sauce drizzled over desserts, such as cheesecake, ice cream, or pavlova. 
    In Baking: It can be used as an ingredient in baking recipes to add a zesty flavor. It can be used in cakes, cupcakes, cookies, or bars to add a tangy kick. It can also be used to fill pastries, turnovers, or danishes for a burst of citrusy goodness.
    In Cocktails or Beverages: It can be stirred into cocktails or mixed with sparkling water, lemonade, or tea to create a refreshing and citrusy beverage.
    As a Gift: It can be jarred and gifted to friends, family, or neighbors. Who wouldn’t love a loaf of freshly baked bread and a cute jar of lemon curd?

    Recipes To Use Lemon Curd In:

    Storing or Freezing Your Lemon Curd 

    In the Refrigerator: It will keep in the refrigerator airtight for up to 10 days. You can remove the plastic wrap that you pressed into the curd when it is chilled and transfer to jars with lids if desired. Once it is chilled a skin will not form.
    To Freeze: Transfer the lemon curd into a freezer safe/airtight container for up to 30 days for best freshness. When you’re ready to use the frozen lemon curd, transfer it to the refrigerator and let it thaw overnight. Avoid thawing lemon curd at room temperature or using the microwave, as this can cause the curd to become too runny. Once thawed, give the lemon curd a gentle stir to restore its smooth texture. If needed, you can also whisk it lightly to bring back its creamy consistency.

    Lemon Curd Recipe

    Author: Shelly

    Prep Time: 5 minutes

    Chill Time: 2 hours

    Cook Time: 10 minutes

    Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes

    Yield: 2 cups 1x

    Category: Condiment

    Method: Stove Top

    Cuisine: American

    Description

    Homemade Lemon Curd is very easy to make and so delicious used in baking recipes, or spread on a piece of toast!

    Ingredients

    Scale
    1x2x3x

    3 large eggs
    1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    2/3 cup lemon juice (3 to 4 medium lemons)
    1/2 cup butter, cut into slices at room temperature
    1 tablespoon lemon zest

    Instructions

    In a small saucepan (*see tip) over medium heat, whisk together the eggs, sugar, salt, and lemon juice until smooth. 
    Add in the butter and lemon zest and continue cooking until the mixture is thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, whisking constantly, about 10 minutes. *See note
    Transfer the lemon curd to a small glass bowl and allow it to cool at room temperature for 15 minutes. Use a strainer or sieve when pouring into the bowl if you notice the curd has any lumps. 
    Press plastic wrap to the surface of the curd to prevent a skin from forming, and then and refrigerate until completely chilled. (see Tip#2)

    Notes

    *Tip #1 – I like to use a small ceramic coated Dutch oven (like a Le Creuset) to cook my lemon curd to avoid a metallic taste that can happen when using a metal saucepan. The lemon juice can react to the metal when it’s hot giving the lemon curd that metal taste. Additionally a metal whisk can cause this to happen as well, so swap that out for a silicone whisk. 
    *Tip #2 – Once the lemon curd is completely chilled you can remove the plastic wrap pressed into the top and transfer the curd to jars with lids if you prefer.
    Store airtight in your refrigerator for up to 10 days in a glass container.
    Freeze airtight for up to 30 days.

    TikTok Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake

    If you like this kind of recipe make sure to try my Easy Cinnamon Roll Cake too!

    Super Easy Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake Recipe!
    I have TONS of homemade desserts on my website…but today isn’t “from scratch”. This is a pure dump and go recipe that magically works even though it doesn’t seem like it will. In fact, this is the type of recipe that was MADE for TikTok. Of course, I have a video over there making this Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake that you should definitely check out too. I first saw a version of this on allrecipes.com and I knew I had to throw my spin on it. I have so many dump cake recipes on my site already, and of course a pretty epic cinnamon roll recipe as well, so I knew this was one that I had to recreate for my readers. And omg it is so freaking delicious. Like out.of.control. It is by no means diet food, but it’s worth every last calorie. 

    Why You Will Love This TikTok Recipe
    So many of us have tried a recipe from the popular app and had it turn out…well…less than perfect.. But this recipe works. It’s kind of magic. Also I hope you know I wouldn’t share a recipe on TikTok or here on my website that hasn’t been tested and is also delicious! And not only is this cinnamon roll dump cake easy to make, but it also has a warm, comforting flavor that’s perfect for any occasion. The cinnamon and brown sugar combines with the canned ready-made cream cheese frosting to create a gooey, caramelized layer as the cake bakes, while the pecans add a satisfying crunch. And with the added convenience of using canned cinnamon rolls, and all store-bought items you can have this dessert ready to go in just a few minutes.

    Ingredients:
    There is nothing from scratch about this recipe…which is exactly the point. Here’s what you need:

    2 cans cinnamon rolls. You’re going to want to get the “Grands” style…you know the ones, that you can unroll and come in a can of 5. You will also need the icing, so set that aside!
    1 can of frosting. You can really use any flavor, but cream cheese frosting or just vanilla is really the best in this recipe.
    Chopped Pecans. You can even omit the nuts in this if you prefer, but we like the little crunch they add! You could even sub in walnuts if you don’t have pecans on-hand.
    Coffee Cake Mix. Or sometimes I find it called “Cinnamon Swirl” cake. The brand doesn’t matter, just get the 21 ounce box. I use the Krusteaz brand, but whatever brand you have is fine. Mine comes with a cake mix and also a separate pouch of cinnamon sugar mix. I use both!
    Butter! Just slice it into thin pats and place it all over the top of the cake mix.

    How Do You Make Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake?
    The beauty of this recipe is how easy it is. You literally dump everything into a 9×13 and bake!

    Preheat your oven to 350°F. Coat a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray and set aside. 
    Open your cinnamon rolls and reserve the can of icing in the packages. Using a knife or kitchen scissors, cut the cinnamon rolls into 1- inch pieces and place in a single layer into the prepared pan.
    Remove the lid and foil seal on the frosting. Microwave it for 30 seconds to loosen it up. Stir until smooth and pour it all over the cut cinnamon rolls in the pan.
    Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top of the frosting layer. 
    Open the box of cake mix and sprinkle the dry mix on top of the nut layer evenly. (If your cake mix comes with a separate pouch of cinnamon sugar mix, just sprinkle that on top too.
    Slice the butter evenly and place the butter pats on top of the dry cake mix. 
    Bake for 40 – 45 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
    Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes and then microwave the reserved cinnamon roll icing for 15 seconds and stir to make it pourable. Drizzle the icing all over the top.
    Serve warm!

    Tips For Baking Success
    This is a very easy recipe, with a very high success rate. Might I even say, impossible to mess up like most dump cakes, which is great for beginners or anyone who wants a quick and delicious recipe. The only thing you could really do wrong here is over or underbake. Just ensure the center is set, so you don’t end up with doughy cinnamon rolls.
    Variations For Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake
    This recipe is completely open for adaptations. Here are a few ideas:

    Add in some chopped apples when you add the nuts to create an Apple Cinnamon Roll Dump Cake. I would use 1 – 2 peeled and diced Granny Smith apples, depending on how many apples you would like! I haven’t tried it yet, but I imagine apple pie filling would work too. The cake would be a little more like a cobbler with the added moisture, but it would still be delicious. 
    A lot of people like raisins in their cinnamon rolls, so feel free to add in raisins when you sprinkle on the nuts.
    You could honestly use any type of cake mix or any flavor frosting in this recipe and it will create a whole new flavor profile. Try a spice cake mix and some pumpkin pie spice to give it a real fall vibe. Get creative!

    Author: Shelly

    Prep Time: 10 minutes

    Cook Time: 40 minutes

    Total Time: 50 minutes

    Yield: serves 10 1x

    Category: Cake

    Method: Oven

    Cuisine: Breakfast

    Description

    Simple store bought ingredients create this over the top breakfast cake. Super easy to make, and a definite crowd pleaser!

    Ingredients

    Scale
    1x2x3x

    2 (17.5- ounce/5 count) cans cinnamon rolls
    1 (16- ounce) container pre-made cream cheese frosting
    3/4 cup chopped pecans
    1 (21.5- ounce) package cinnamon swirl or coffee cake mix
    3/4 cup butter, sliced into thin pieces

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 9×13 baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
    Open your cinnamon rolls and reserve the cans of icing in the packages. Using a knife or kitchen scissors, cut the cinnamon rolls into 1- inch pieces and place in a single layer into the prepared pan.
    Remove the foil seal from the frosting and microwave it for 25 seconds to loosen it up. Stir until smooth and pour it all over the cut cinnamon rolls in the pan.
    Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top of the frosting layer.
    Sprinkle the dry mix on top of the nut layer evenly. (If your cake mix comes with a separate pouch of cinnamon sugar mix, just sprinkle that on top too.
    Place the butter slices evenly on top of the dry cake mix.
    Bake for 40 – 45 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
    Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes and then microwave the reserved cinnamon roll icing for 15 seconds and stir to make it pourable. Drizzle the icing all over the top of the cake.
    Serve warm!
