Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch square baking pan; set aside.
- Make the Filling: Remove ⅔ cup of the cake mix and place in a medium bowl. Add the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped pecans, mixing with a spoon or spatula to thoroughly combine.
- In a large bowl, combine the remaining cake mix, eggs, and sour cream until completely combined.
- Pour half of the wet batter into the prepared pan, then sprinkle evenly with half of the filling.
- Pour the remaining batter over top and smooth it into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining filling mixture over the top of the batter.
- Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a toothpick or thin skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to serve warm; it can also be served at room temperature.
Notes
- Yellow Cake Mix: Use your favorite brand here. Using a mix is so quick and easy! I also have a recipe for a DIY yellow cake mix if you want to try making your own!
- Pecans: You could swap for walnuts if you prefer, or omit entirely if you need to avoid nuts.
- Sour Cream: Use full-fat for a wonderfully moist cake. You can also substitute full-fat Greek yogurt.
- Serving: Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.
- Garnish: Serve plain or with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a drizzle of simple icing (mix powdered sugar with water or milk to create a drizzling consistency).
- Storage: Cover with plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 2 days.
