Step 1

Cream together the butter and sugar well.

Step 2

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition until light and fluffy.

Step 3

Beat in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Sift together the flour and baking powder.

Step 5

Mix together the whipping cream and milk.

Step 6

Fold the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture alternately with the milk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. As a general rule, I add the dry ingredients in 3 portions and the milk in 2 portions.

Step 7

Stir together the cinnamon and 2/3 cup sugar.

Step 8

Divide the batter into 4 or 5 portions. Add the first portion to the bundt pan and then sprinkle about a few tbsp of the cinnamon sugar on top of the batter. Repeat this process until all of the batter and cinnamon sugar are used. You can sprinkle the last of the cinnamon sugar on top if there is any left.

Step 9

Bake in a well greased and floured bundt pan, tube pan or 2 small loaf pans lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes - 1 hour depending upon the size of your pan.

Step 10

Baking times vary greatly on this recipe so rely on the toothpick test to ensure that it is properly baked. When a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, its done.

Step 11

Let the cake cool in the pan/s for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.

Step 12

Simple whisk the three ingredients together until smooth. The glaze should be thick but just pourable. Add a little more icing sugar or milk as needed to achieve the correct consistency. Drizzle over the cooled cake. I like to use a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off for this purpose.
