Combine the light brown sugar<\/a> and ground cinnamon, then sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.

This cake can be made a day in advance. Store it covered at room temperature and glaze just before serving for the best texture.<\/span><\/p>\n Honey bun cake is a sticky, cinnamony cake that<\/span> mimics the flavor of store-bought honey buns. It features a sweet vanilla glaze<\/a> atop a yellow cake mix. It has a texture similar to a cinnamon roll and tastes delicious as a dessert or breakfast treat.<\/span><\/p>\n There’s so much you can do with cake mix. Start with this list of cake mix desserts: red velvet cinnamon rolls<\/a>, birthday cake fudge, quick breads<\/a>, pancakes and more.<\/span><\/p>\n Its cozy cinnamon flavor makes it a great brunch treat, especially during the spring, fall or holiday season.
