Cake Fridays

Two Food Network recipes in a row, and two of my favorites at that!  I absolutely adore this cake.  Whenever I make it, people insist on having the recipe.  They rave about its moist texture and drippy, sticky glaze.  This cake will really sock it to you; it is one sucker punch of a dessert!

1 cup chopped pecans 
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Glaze:

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 package golden cake mix
1 cup sour cream
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water

4 large eggs

Directions

For streusel filling:
Combine all ingredients and set aside.

For cake:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine cake mix, sour cream, oil, sugar, water, flour and eggs in a large mixer bowl.  Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes with electric mixer.  Pour 1/2 of batter into a greased 13x9-inch pan.  Sprinkle streusel filling on top and swirl the filling.  Spoon remaining batter evenly over filling.  Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in pan 25 minutes, invert onto serving plate, and then let cool completely.
