Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box Duncan Hines yellow cake mix
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 box vanilla pudding instant mix (the larger size box)
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 4 eggs
  • ¾ cup water
  • ¾ cup oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan to prevent sticking (or use any pan and follow oven times from the cake box).
  • Mix the batter:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla pudding mix, and cinnamon. Add the eggs, water, and oil. Beat on medium speed until the batter is smooth and well blended.
  • Pour the batter:
    Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
  • Bake:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake:
    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Optional glaze (for extra indulgence):
    In a saucepan, combine ¼ cup melted butter, ½ cup sugar, and ¼ cup water. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Pour the warm glaze over the cake for a shiny, delicious finish.

Notes

  • You can use any cake mix you prefer, but Duncan Hines gives the best results in this recipe.
  • Feel free to add a dusting of powdered sugar if you skip the glaze.
  • The glaze is optional but adds a wonderful, sweet finish to the cake.
