Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Yellow cake mix
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Chopped pecans
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan to ensure the cake releases easily after baking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, sour cream, vegetable oil, water, granulated sugar, eggs, and all-purpose flour. Beat the mixture on medium speed with a hand or stand mixer for 3-4 minutes until smooth and well combined.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and chopped pecans to form the streusel mixture.
Pour about half of the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan. Sprinkle the streusel mixture evenly over the batter, forming a layer of cinnamon-pecan goodness. Carefully spoon the remaining batter over the streusel layer, spreading it gently to cover.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the cake is fully cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top. Let the glaze set for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve and enjoy the nostalgic flavors of this Sock It to Me Cake with friends and family!
