Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a bundt or tube pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix and instant vanilla pudding mix.
Add the vegetable oil, sherry, water, and eggs to the dry mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until the batter is smooth and well combined.
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly into the prepared pan, coating the bottom and sides.
Pour the cake batter into the pan, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture on top of the batter.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate and let it cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
Slice and serve your delicious Sherry Cake. Enjoy!
