Add remaining dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Spread into prepared pan. Place melted butter in a mixing bowl and add brown sugar and cinnamon, mixing well. Drizzle over cake batter and then with a knife, swirl throughout. Bake 35-40 min, or until baked through.
When cake is done baking, prepare brown butter icing. Brown butter in a small saucepan until bubbly and browned. Place softened cream cheese into a large mixing bowl and pour browned butter over cream cheese, whisking until smooth. Slowly add powdered sugar and cream until smooth. Drizzle over warm cake and spread evenly. Cool completely and cut out 2 cake rounds to fit into pie dish (remove parchment). Prepare cream filling.
