Eat your Cake

I love easy recipes.  Too many ingredients and I just move right along.

This is good, or it WAS good.

The above is prior to popping it into the oven.

From my favorite cookbook, Ultimate Southern Living

Honey Bun Cake

1 yellow cake mix w/pudding in the mix
4 eggs
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup water
1 8oz carton or 1 cup, of sour cream
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
2/3 cup chopped pecans

Combine first 5 ingredients.  Mix for 2 minutes with a mixer, or by hand (as I do).
In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cinnamon and pecans.
Pour 1/2 the cake batter into greased 9x13 cake pan.  Sprinkle with 1/2 the sugar/nut mix, pour rest of batter over the top, sprinkle with the rest of the nut mix.  Swirl around a bit with a knife. 
Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.

Frost with buttercream or sourcream frosting, or eat it nakid'. 

This is not a cake you can deny making and hide in the pantry to consume all by yourself.  It smells way too good - like coffee cake. 

Now, don't forget to walk the dog.  Aim for a 15 minute mile, then you can have more cake!
