Ingredients

Streusel Center

2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
2 tablespoons butter cake mix

Cake Batter

1 18.25 ounce butter cake mix (less 2 tablespoons for streusel)
1/2 cup oil
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup water
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

Drizzle

1/2 cup powdered sugar please see notes
1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour bundt pan.
In a small bowl mix together cinnamon, brown sugar, pecans and 2 tablespoons dried cake mix.
In a large mixing bowl add the remaining cake mix, oil, sour cream, water, eggs and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until combined scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl.
Pour 2/3's of the batter into the pan. Spoon the streusel into the center using a small spoon working all the way around the cake. Gently pour the rest of the batter over the top.
Bake for 45 minutes or until set. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes before inverting.
Whisk together milk and powdered sugar. Drizzle over fully cooled cake.

Notes

We prefer a light drizzle on this cake since it is already quite sweet. If you prefer a heavier drizzle double the powdered sugar and milk.
