The Honey Bun Coffee Cake is a delectable delight that is sure to become a beloved staple in your family's recipe collection. Once you have tasted this sweet treat, you'll find yourself craving it time and time again.

Ingredients:

1 box yellow cake mix

8 ounce tub sour cream

4 eggs

3/4 c. vegetable oil

1 c brown sugar

1 Tbsp ground cinnamon

2 c. powdered sugar

4 Tbsp. milk

1 Tbsp. vanilla

Directions:

Please preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan in preparation for baking.

In a spacious mixing bowl, thoroughly blend together the cake mix, eggs, oil, and sour cream. Mix by hand until the majority of large lumps are no longer visible, although it is acceptable for smaller lumps to remain.

Begin by pouring half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Next, in a medium-sized bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Thoroughly mix the brown sugar and cinnamon until well combined.

Evenly distribute the brown sugar mixture across the surface of the batter in the cake pan. It is important to ensure that the cinnamon mixture reaches all the way to the edges of the pan to avoid uneven distribution.

Next, proceed to evenly distribute the remaining half of the batter over the top layer. Embrace this step confidently, even if it feels challenging.

During the mixing process, the batter and ingredients will combine, possibly giving the impression that something may have gone amiss.

Rest assured, there is no need for concern regarding the appearance. After evenly distributing the mixture, proceed by using a butter knife to swirl it throughout the batter, creating a pleasing and swirling pattern.

Instructions for baking: Bake the mixture for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. As the baking process nears completion, prepare a mixture of powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk.

I consistently employ a fork to ensure that all small clumps are thoroughly dispersed. Immediately upon removing the cake from the oven, act promptly. Proceed to drizzle the powdered sugar combination onto the still-warm cake.

Please relax and anticipate the delightful crackling sound that will soon emerge. The honey bun topping adds a special touch to the experience. It is advisable to exercise patience for approximately 15 minutes before indulging in it. I understand that waiting can be challenging, particularly when accompanied by a tempting cup of coffee at hand.

After the designated time, gently shut your eyes and reflect on whether the experience transports you back to fond recollections from your past. If recollections of indulging in Honey Buns do not come to mind, consider initiating those delightful memories today, in this very moment.
