Why did Duncan Hines quit putting the recipe for the "sock it to me" cake on the box. Also --- Changes have been made to the Duncan Hines cake mix. Not like it used to be. I have always used Duncan Hines mixes , started when they were the only ones to have mix in a plastic container. I did not like getting ready to bake a cake and find I had bugs in the mix. Never with DH.

I love this cake and was raised on it. It's so easy! Here's what my mom did that makes it even quicker and not quite so sweet. (At least the glaze part.) For the filling: Get rid of the nuts and cake mix and use 3 T of brown sugar and 1 T of cinnamon. When the cake is ready to go into the oven, take a knife and cut the cake batter up and down all the way around the bundt pan. This makes the filling swirl just a bit and keeps the cake from falling apart at the filling line. For the glaze: Just sift powdered sugar over the top.
