Ingredients:  
Cinnamon Sugar Mixture
1 cup light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Honey Bun Cake Batter
1 box (15.25 oz) butter yellow cake mix
1 cup full-fat sour cream
1 stick melted butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 cups powdered sugar

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.

In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar and cinnamon until combined. Set aside for later.

In a large mixing bowl, using an electric hand mixer or spatula, stir together the cake mix, sour cream, butter, oil, and eggs until well combined.

Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan.

Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over top the cake batter.

Drop spoonfuls of the remaining cake batter all over top the cinnamon sugar mixture. Spread it very carefully (if needed) to cover the cinnamon layer.

Bake for 32-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cake is baking whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl.

Poke a few holes in the hot cake with a fork. Pour the vanilla glaze over top the warm cake. Let it cool inside the pan until the glaze has set.

Eat warm or at room temperature.

Personal Notes:
I like to double the glaze. Part soaks into the cake & it leaves a nice glaze on top.
