Honeybun Cake


1 box Yellow cake mix
4 eggs
1 c. sour cream
3/4 c. vegetable oil
1 c. light brown sugar
2 t. cinnamon
2 c. powdered sugar
6 T. milk
1 t. vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. By hand, blend the cake mix,eggs, sour cream and oil until well incorporated. The mixture may have a few lumps, but that is ok. Set aside.

In a seperate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon until well blended; set aside.

Pour half of the cake batter in a greased 9X13 pan, spreading the batter out into a thin layer. Add half the swirl mixture to cover top. Pour the rest of the batter on top and spread until the batter is even. Top the cake off with the rest of the swirl mixture. With a knife, swirl the batter. Place the cake into the oven and bake for 45-50 mins.( mine was a little less time, depending on oven).

While the cake is baking, make the glaze. In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until glaze is of desired consistency. When the cake comes out of the oven,immediately pour glaze onto hot cake, I poked a few holes in the cake and tilted it so the glaze would spread evenly over the cake. Let the cake sit a few mins. so the glaze can set and serve warm or at room temp.
