9 Reviews of Sock It to Me Cake

From: Allison Hurst

On Aug 7, 2006

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.

    A classic and for good reason. I had forgotten all about it till I saw one at the store. Of course I had to revisit this cake from so many office potlucks. Wonderful. Thank you, Mary.

    I make the cakes for employee birthdays. I never heard of this cake untill some one suggested I make it at the next birthday. I searched several recipes but this one was the best. It is GREAT!

    I've make this cake since the mid '70 and still love it. I especially love the brown sugar and cinnamon in the center. Good, good, good.

    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.

    My co-worker had a grandmother who recently passed. I made this for her as this was her grandmother's special cake. Great recipe. Thank you for posting.
