Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and both sugars until smooth.
Add eggs and vanilla to the mixture and whisk until combined.
Stir in the buttermilk until the mixture is uniform.
Gently mix in flour, baking powder, and salt just until combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, prepare the filling by mixing together butter, light brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and cinnamon until well blended.
Drop spoonfuls of the cinnamon filling over the batter without swirling.
Bake for 25-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract; adjust the consistency with more sugar or milk as needed.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake.

Notes

Make sure to cool the melted butter slightly before mixing to ensure a smooth batter.
Adjust the thickness of the glaze according to your preference by modifying the sugar and milk amounts.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
