There's nothing quite like a warm, freshly-baked coffee cake. This recipe uses a yellow cake mix, vanilla pudding mix, and sour cream for an easy version that tastes like homemade.

ingredients

1 package (18.25 ounce size) yellow cake mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 package (3.4 ounce size) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a tube pan.

In another bowl, stir together the sugar, cinnamon, and pecans.

Transfer half of the cake mix batter to the greased tube pan. Evenly sprinkle it with half of the pecan mixture. Top with the remaining cake batter and then sprinkle with the remaining pecan mixture.

No one can ever guess that this is made from a cake mix. The cake is SO moist and yummy. I also tried it with butterscotch pudding and that was delicious too.

I baked this in a 13x9 pan because I don't have a tube pan. It took less time to bake but sorry I didn't really time it I just tested it with a toothpick to see when it was done. Maybe 35 minutes? But be sure to just bake it until done and test it. Going to try this next time with a butterscotch pudding mix.

This cake is moist and delicious. It is excellent. I did one following this recipe, then I did another one using brown sugar instead of regular sugar, and added some choc chips with butter plus the cinnamon and nuts. It was really out of this world.
