Streusel Bundt Coffee Cake

Streusel Bundt Coffee Cake

Ingredients:

1 box (15 ounces) yellow cake mix

2 boxes (3.4 ounces each) vanilla instant pudding mix

4 eggs

1 cup vegetable oil

1 cup water

1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1/4 cup butter

1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

1/4 cup powdered sugar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use a mixer and beat together first 5 ingredients for a couple minutes until smooth. Spoon half of the cake batter into a greased and floured bundt pan.

In another bowl use a pastry blender or fork to make streusel by mixing brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter until crumbly. Stir in nuts if using. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the streusel mixture on top of cake batter. Use a knife to swirl the sugar mixture into the batter. Spoon remaining cake mixture on top of sugar mixture and top with remaining streusel. Bake in a preheated 350 oven for 45 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool a bit and then invert on to a plate. Dust with powdered sugar.
