Delicious and Moist Honey Bun Cake Cinnamon Flop

Submitted by lovin2cook

"This cake is divine! It taste like a mixture of a moist honey bun and a moist cinnamon strudel. I can't say enough about this cake. My brother (who has never asked for any recipe) tried it and said he wanted the recipe. It was delicious! Simple, quick and easy ingredients. You have to give it a try!"

3. Grease 9x13" dish.

my family are all diabetic, so I tweaked this to make it as sugar free as possible. Sugar free as possible, sugarfree cake mix plus plus 2oz., Splenda and brown sugar blend mixed, for brown sugar. sugarfree coolwhip, milk and a block of cream cheese for glaze. wonderful.

Delicious! My husband, grand children & I all agree! That's quite an accomplishment for this group. LOL! I used Betty Crocker Moist Butter Cake Mix (all I had) & Heath bits o' brickle chips. (I didn't have nuts so used what I had.) I will definitely make again.

I made this delightful cake for Thanksgiving. It was the hit of desserts. It may have been because it was a shocker as to how incredible it was, but definitely easy to make and delicious! I would recommend anyone at least trying it. Take your time when layering and make sure it is evenly spread out, that makes a difference. Enjoy!

I prepared this cake for my Sunday dinner & was a HIT!! Everyone went back for 2nds, 3rds & 4ths plus took some home! Very moist, sweet & tasty. I couldn't believe how easy it was to make. The cake batter was a little thick & odd to spread but once the topping was placed over it, the cake baked perfectly. This one is sure to be a HIT!
