Kathy's Cinnamon Breakfast Cake

Not all the recipes are cakes.  This out of the section of the book with coffee cake recipes (page 257).  This along with the "Ripe Banana Loaves" were made to welcome back the folks in our offices after the holiday hiatus - some went with hubby and some to my office.

I'm a lover of cinnamon, so of course I love this one.  The book describes this as a variation of the "Sock It To Me Cake" - the main differences being vanilla pudding and the "filling" - in this version the nuts are placed in the bottom of the baking pan and the filling is just brown sugar and cinnamon mixed together and layered between batter. Because of the addition of the pudding mix, this is a very moist coffee cake - it was also  little hard to cut - it'll need to be eaten from a plate - not held in your hands.  Also being a lover of pecans, I would have loved to use a little more nuts.   But all and all a very nice cake and as with every one so far, easy to make.
