Cinnamon Swirl Cake

Okay so there's a problem with this recipe. 
The problem is I go to bed with a full circle cake. 
The husband comes home.
I wake up, and the cake looks like this:

 So you'd think that's not really a problem.  I'll send him over to your house to eat all of your favorite treats.  It's all in good fun...I really do appreciate how he really enjoys what I make. 

I must say, this cake is pretty darn good.
