Cinnamon Tea Cake

Delicious cinnamon tea cake dusted with powdered sugar, served on a rustic wooden table.

Cinnamon Tea Cake is a nice simple cake to keep in freezer for those times that people just pop around without notice. A good cake for Frugal Living as it freezes well and uses basic ingredients!
