make it
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil and buttermilk. Mix well. Pour half of the batter into a greased 13" x 9" cake pan.
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon and nuts. Sprinkle over batter. Pour remaining batter over sugar mixture. Using a butter knife, swirl sugar mixture and batter together. Don't mix them completely!
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
To Make the Glaze: Mix all glaze ingredients well. Pour over warm cake.
Notes
* Substitute for buttermilk: Place one tablespoon vinegar into a measuring cup. Add enough milk to equal 1 cup. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes.
