To make this Sweet Honey Bun Cake, You’ll need the following Ingredients:
Ingredients:
1 (18.25 ounces) package yellow cake mix
3/4 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 (8 ounces) container sour cream
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, oil, eggs and sour cream. Stir by hand approximately 50 strokes, or until most large lumps are gone. Pour half of the batter into an ungreased 9×13 inch glass baking dish. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the batter in the cake pan. Spoon the other half of the batter into the cake pan, covering the brown sugar and cinnamon. Twirl the cake with a butter knife or icing knife until it looks like a honey bun (or whatever design you want to make).
3. Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Frost cake while it is still fairly hot. Serve warm.
4. To Make the frosting: In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioner’s sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth.
