    I made this cake today and was really pleased with the results. This will make a great coffee cake type of breakfast item. I did put cinnamon in the glaze as I love anything with cinnamon. Thanks for sharing.

    I love this cake and was raised on it. It's so easy! Here's what my mom did that makes it even quicker and not quite so sweet. (At least the glaze part.) For the filling: Get rid of the nuts and cake mix and use 3 T of brown sugar and 1 T of cinnamon. When the cake is ready to go into the oven, take a knife and cut the cake batter up and down all the way around the bundt pan. This makes the filling swirl just a bit and keeps the cake from falling apart at the filling line. For the glaze: Just sift powdered sugar over the top.

    Thanks so much for posting this recipe. My sister used to make this in the 70's, but we couldn't find her recipe. I just made this one and it is as wonderful as I remembered — great taste, moist and easy to make. I wouldn't change a thing.
