This is a great cake. I especially love the sweet taste of the cinnamon, sugar and pecans you put on top, or actually bottom of the cake. Will make again. Oh, I almost forgot to mention the wonderful smell this cake has when it's baking, WOW it filled the house.

I threw this together last night- the pictures of it looked so tempting. I have to say that mine didn't quite look like the photos. I am wondering it Marsha used brown sugar in the place of regular, or if she used more of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Mine was also finished cooking after about 50 minutes. Thought that it tasted really good warm. Do not know what my coworkers thought yet. The plate was clean by the end of the day though Thanks for sharing!

loved the fact that this cake is so easy to throw together and does not even remotely taste that it is so easy. does not taste like it started out with a cake mix. the sour cream and pudding mix make it really rich and luscious and the pecans and cinnamon really add an intense taste and texture to the cake. i did use cannola oil because that is what i had on hand. wish i could thank amy for posting this great recipe.

Wonderful!! sums this up Love the flavor of the cinnamon and the spice in the cake mix. Easy to make and very good with a cup of coffee and I bet it would be really be good with a cold glass of milk. Thanks so much for sharing one of my favorite chefs recipe, Paula Deen's Spicy Cinnamon Cake!

So moist so good! I put some whole pecans in the bottom of the pan before I put the batter in. It looked nice when I took it out of the pan. In step 5 the sugar mixture did not stick to the top/bottom of the cake very well when turned out. Next time I may try raw sugar and put it in the bottom of the pan before the batter goes in. My cake was done in 50 minutes. Made for Cake a Thon in Memory of Chef I Am 2007

I made this as a treat last night for my children because they cleaned the house! What a fabulous, easy recipe this was. It went together easily and quickly. I used Baking Spice - Copycat Pampered Chef Cinnamon Plus Mix Pampered Chef Baking Spice instead of the cinnamon called for and it was wonderful....it intensified the spice flavor of the whole cake. I barely let the cake cool enough before taking the first slice. Pure heaven. This morning, I noticed 3/4 of the cake was gone. Definitely a winner! I will be making this again and remembering Amy with each and every bite.

Very moist and delicious. My coworkers loved it. I'm sure I'll be making it again, especially during the holidays.
