Ingredients
cinnamon pecan swirl
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup toasted pecans*, finely chopped
- 1 ½ tsp cinnamon
cake
- 15 ounce vanilla cake mix I use Duncan Hines French Vanilla
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
icing
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 5 Tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat you roven to 350F. Lightly spray or grease a 9x13 pan.
- Mix together the cinnamon pecan swirl in a small bowl. Make sure to break up any lumps in your brown sugar. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the cake mix, eggs, oil, sour cream and extract until there is no dry cake mix left. Small lumps are ok.
- Pour half the batter into your prepared pan and gently spread out.
- Sprinkle half the swirl mixture over the batter.
- Add the rest of the batter and gently spread out as best you can. Don't worry if you don't cover all the cinnamon swirl mixture.
- Top with the rest of the cinnamon swirl mixture. Take a butter knife and gently swirl the layers together. Don't swirl too much ~ you want to see that pretty layer in your finished cake!
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden on top and done in the center. Cake mix based cakes tend to bake more quickly than homemade cakes, so don't over-bake!
- After the cake comes out of the oven, stir together the sugar and milk to make a spreadable icing. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then pour over the still hot cake and spread out to cover most of the top.
- Let the icing set up before serving.
Notes
- *To toast pecans the easy way, lay them out on a sheet of parchment paper or paper towel in your microwave and microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned.
