Yummy recipe! Easy and turns out wonderfully moist and delish - I subbed butter for the shortening. And added a good tsp of cinnamon to the batter (I am not sure I would've like it without!). Also, I spread half the batter into the pan, then sprinkled half the cinnamon/sugar mixture over it, followed by the rest of the batter. You couldn't really see the layer (probably have to use a lot more cinn/sugar) but I appreciated the taste it added. --To make a little more enticing, I made a cream cheese/powdered sugar/milk glaze to the top of each piece. But it's perfectly tasty without!

This cake was good. A basic white cake with cinnamon and sugar on the top. I'd definitely recommend reading through the reviews and adding some cinnamon, vanilla, extra topping layer, etc. to jazz it up a bit.

This was a simple recipe with delicious results. I took PP's advice and used butter instead of shortening, added a teaspoon of vanilla and cinnamon to the batter, created a layer of cinnamon sugar halfway through cake and drizzled with a half cup of melted butter. Yum!

Looking over the recipe and judging from other reviews it was apparent this cake needed "something." I made half a recipe in an 8x8" pan and rather than use the sugar/cinnamon topping, I added a half teaspoon of cinnamon and a teaspoon of vanilla to the batter. It turned out to be not as tall a cake as I would have liked, but it was fragrant with the vanilla and cinnamon and simply delcious topped with a fluffy buttercream and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon. And sure enough, it does taste like a Snickerdoodle - a moist Snickerdoodle with a fluffy, creamy frosting!

it was good gave it 5 star because it was different and good for a quick cake and basic without having to go out for ingrediants. I read reviews and i actually added extra sugar to the batter and then did the layer thing like other review, with the butter,sugar and cinnamon..it was sweet enough to not have the powdered sugar glaze...it took care of my sugar crave for the eve..

This cake was great! it was moist and the outside was nice and crunchy. I did add 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the batter and doubled the cin/sug and with the sugar mix I spread half of the batter in the cake pan then sprinkled it with the mix, then added in the rest of the batter and sprinkled it with the leftover sugar. On each serving I added a spoonfull of melted butter to the top as well as a drizzleing of powdered sugar glaze. Thanks for the great recipie.

I found the cake quite bland, even after adding 1 1/2 t cinnamon to the batter. The cake itself was quite solid, not in a good way.

I just made this tasty cake for my husband(we both love the cookies). Mine came out more like a brownie texture but thats probably my fault. I tried something different and sifted the flour(I heard it adds fluff)I also used butter instead of shortening and buttermilk instead of milk.It was still great. And I will make it again...less the fluff part. Thanks

Yummy! I prepared the batter as written and used the amount of topping called for and it filled 12 mini bundt cakes, 12 cupcakes, and 24 mini muffins. For the mini bundts, I put a little of the topping in the bottom of the pan, then batter, then more topping, then batter and a final sprinkle of topping. These were the best out of the three because of all the cinnamon. The cupcakes baked in liners for 15 minutes and had topping in the middle as well as the top. The mini muffins only had the cinnamon on the top and baked for 10 minutes. They were all delicious when warm and still pretty good when cold. I had a cinnamon glaze in mind that I thought I might need as some of the reviews said the cake was plain, but I think the additional cinnamon/sugar layers cured that. I can see how it would be easy to overbake and therefore dry out this cake, as it doesn't really brown or change color at all. If you test it long before you think it's done, you may be surprised to see that it is.

WOW! I thought it looked a little dry as it was coming from the oven. I let it cool (barely) and took a bite. YUMMY! This cake does taste just like the cookie only fluffier. It was moist, light and tasty and as I stood there eating slice after slice, I began to think of what else I could pair with it. It's great with strawberries and a cold glass of soymilk. Next time I'll try making homemade whipping cream to serve along with. Peaches, berries or as is this cake is great. Thanks for the submission!

My family loved this cake. I used buttermilk instead of regular milk and added a Tablespoon of mexican vanilla. Also used butter flavor shortening. The cake came out light and fluffy. I didn't care for the sugar/cinnamon topping. I think next time I'll make a cinnamon glaze with white powder sugar and butter to spread over the top while it's hot.
