Yields: 12 servings
Prep Time: 0 hours 10 mins
Total Time: 1 hour 45 mins

Ingredients

For the cake
Cooking spray
1 box white cake mix, plus ingredients called for on box

For the filling
1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
4 tbsp. melted butter
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt

For the frosting
1/2 c. heavy cream
1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese
4 tbsp. butter, softened
1 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Pinch of kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Make cake: Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9"-x-13" baking pan with cooking spray. Prepare cake according to package directions. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean, 20 minutes. Let cool.
  2. Make filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Make frosting: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. In another large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter together until no lumps remain. Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth, then add in vanilla and a pinch of salt. Fold in whipped cream until just combined.
  5. Using the bottom of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over cake. Pour filling over and use a rubber spatula to push into holes. Frost with cream cheese frosting. Refrigerate 20 minutes before serving.
