Instructions
**For Active Dry yeast: heat the milk only to 105F. Add the yeast to the lukewarm milk. Stir and let stand 10 minutes before adding to the batter.
Mix the batter ingredients together in a greased 10-inch skillet or 8x8-inch pan. Let batter rest for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the cinnamon mixture by mixing with fork.
Top batter evenly with cinnamon mixture, using your fingers to poke the topping thoroughly into batter.
Place baking pan/skillet into a COLD oven, then immediately set the oven temperature to 350° F. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly browned and firm in centre. Cool for 10 minutes. Combine icing ingredients and drizzle over warm cake.
