Hummingbird Cake

A friend first pointed out the Hummingbird Cake

from a recent issue in Food Network Magazine

Then I saw it on this blog  - Paris Pastry 

Loved the updated look with the chips on it, so I decided to make it

I followed this recipe   for the cake 

& 

then I used this recipe to try to recreate Sprinkles Cinnamon Cream Cheese frosting

(got this idea from above mentioned friend as well)

I used white chocolate and cinnamon chips for the decoration

I must say, this is a very easy cake to make

and the results are pretty amazing
