You'll notice there is no chocolate icing and (you can't really tell) but there is no chocolate in the cake. As much as I love chocolate and I love cinnamon I don't really like them together. Plus not making the icing made these even faster. I did do a lite dusting of powdered sugar on top and that made these taste even better, although I would think vanilla ice cream would make them awesome too.
This awesome recipe was picked by Tracey of Tracey's Culinary Adventures, look there for the recipe. And see how all the TWD members handled this cake here.

I love a simple cake. Nice job!

No chocolate?
Yes! You must try the chocolate icing... it's heaven! :) Hope you're doing well - I haven't talked to you in forever!!
I kinda agree about the chocolate and cinnamon. And you know what goes great with cinnamon? MAPLE!!!! I bet this would be a fantastic with a maple icing.
Thanks for baking with me this week! I'm glad you adapted the recipe to make it work for you. Your squares look terrific!
I love cinnamon and chocolate together! But I also love them separate and your Cinnamon Square cake looks really tasty! It would make a great breakfast treat!
