German Bundt Cake

My mother in law made this cake once and I fell in love. It's my absolute favorite. I'd rather have this then a normal everyday birthday cake!! Enjoy it with a cup of coffee or hot cocoa.

German Bundt Cake

1 pkg yellow cake mix
1 pkg vanilla pudding mix (small pkg)
3/4 cup veg. oil
3/4 cup water
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp butter flavor (available in the baking section)

Mix those ingredients together THEN add:

4 eggs (one at a time)

Set that aside and combine the following in a small bowl.

1/4 cup white sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup walnuts or pecans (I prefer walnuts in the summer, pecans in the winter)

Grease bundt pan heavily with cooking spray. I've never made it in any other type of pan.
Sprinkle light layer of filling in the bottom of pan. *I put some whole pecans or walnuts in the bottom then sprinkle the filling over that*
Then pour cake mix over filling (enough to cover bottom of pan), then continue layering the cake batter & filling mixture til all is gone.

Bake @ 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until knife comes out clean. Let sit for 5-10 minutes then turn over onto cake plate.

Next you'll need to make your glaze!

1/3 tsp vanilla
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tbs milk

I use a very small whisk then drizzle over cake once it's completely cooled.
