Description
A delicious, rich, moist cake with cinnamon, brown sugar, and pecans.
Ingredients
- 1 package yellow cake mix (Duncan Hines Golden Butter cake mix is my favorite!)
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
1. Set aside 1/2 cup of the cake mix.
2. Pour remaining cake mix into a medium mixing bowl. Add butter, eggs, and sour cream and beat on medium speed with an electric mixer until all ingredients are combined.
3. Spread half of the cake batter into a greased 9×13 baking dish (a glass dish is best).
4. In a small bowl, mix together the reserved dry cake mix, pecans, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over the cake batter in the pan.
5. Spoon the remaining cake batter onto the pecan mixture and spread carefully and evenly until the pecans are covered.
6. Bake the cake at 350 for 40 minutes.
7. In a small bowl, stir together the powdered sugar, milk, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Pour the mixture over the warm cake.
