Just try to imagine a big, warm, super moist, dense, Brownie, filled with tunnels of thick, drippy, Cinnamony sweetness, studded with crunchy Pecans, and then topped with a thick Cream Cheese Spiral of Frosting.

Ingredients

1 box of White Cake Mix…or any flavor you’d like
2/3 cup Cream
1/2 cup melted Butter
1 tsp. Vanilla
A 9″ round cake pan for that Cinnamon Roll look..or any cake pan will work too. Spray it with non-stick spray!

The Swirl

1 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup chopped Pecans
1 tbsp. ground Cinnamon
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 tbsp. or so of Water just for consistency

Frosting

I used store bought Cream Cheese Frosting to top the Brownies

Instructions

First prepare the Swirl, and set aside! In a medium bowl combine all of the Swirl ingredients until it’s thick and blended…
Mix together the cake Batter with the Cream, Butter and Vanilla, and pour it 3/4 of the way into the cake pan. You might have some batter left over…make some mini Brownie Bites, or something!
Add dollops of the Swirl into the cake batter and use a knife or Chopsticks to swirl it around in pretty Cinnamon Roll-ish designs…
Place the pan onto a Sheet pan to protect your oven in the event of a slight spill- over.
Into the oven at 350 for approx. 35-40 minutes, or until it’s cooked through. Let it cool completely before flipping it out of the pan…
Top it with the Cream Cheese Frosting.
Cut it up into Brownie sized pieces…
