Directions:
Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Grease an 8’’x12’’ (20x30cm) baking pan with butter.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together for 2 minutes.
- Add the vegetable oil and yogurt. Beat until well combined.
- Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt over the mixture. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix the flour.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Filling:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, condensed milk, and heavy cream.
- Using the bottom of a wooden spoon or spatula, poke holes all over the warm cake. Slowly pour the filling over the cake and let it cool completely.
Frosting:
- In a large bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, being careful not to overbeat or the cream will turn buttery.
- Spread the whipped cream over the cake and smooth the top. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top of the frosting.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Store the cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
