I have made this cake numerous times and everyone devours it. I have passed this recipe on to others because it is easy and failproof. I definitely love the tip to coat pan in cinnamon/sugar combo, along with covering the edges around the pan to keep from getting too done. If you have a pie crust shield, it works great!

Loved this cake. Didn't have any sour cream but substituted vanilla yogurt and I used walnuts instead of pecans, it turned out great!!!

I thought I rated this cake, but it doens't seem to appear anywhere. Well, I baked it and it was a hit. I am baking it for xmas. It taste great with my almond milk. Mine turn out shorter than the picture. I think it is my little bundt pan. Perhaps I need to find a taller pan.

This cake was so moist and delicious. It was gone in a flash. Don't forget to do the "specail extra" by putting the sugar and cinnamon on the cake pan after you use the non-stick cooking spray.

Love this cake. The flavor is great and it's nice and moist. The only thing different I did was to add a half a cup of white raisins in the batter. Will be making this a lot.

My family and girls at work absolutely loved it. Very easy to make. I substituted butter cake instead of yellow cake. Just moved to the top of the list of favorites!

I have made it twice. Took one to LSU football tailgate party and it was a huge hit. Lots of good Louisiana cooks there so it is a keeper and so easy to throw together.
