Is there any way to write a variable to an XML node and wrap that variable in CDATA tags?

For example, if I have a var \_someVar, writing it into an XML node is easy; \<myNode\>{\_someVar}\</myNode\> . But what happens when I want to wrap that variable in CDATA tags? I’ve tried everything I can think of. Can someone help?
