Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 1 box Vanilla Cake Mix Any vanilla or yellow cake mix works well.
  • 4 large Eggs Using extra large eggs can enhance flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil Can be swapped for melted butter or coconut oil.
  • 1 cup Buttermilk A mix of milk and 1 tablespoon of vinegar can substitute it.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla extract is the best for robust taste.
For the Cinnamon Swirl
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar Both light and dark brown sugar will work.
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour.
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon Freshly ground cinnamon offers the best flavor.

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easy Snickerdoodle Bundt Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare the Bundt pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine vanilla cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, buttermilk, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and melted butter until crumbly to create the cinnamon swirl.
  4. Layer half the cake batter into the Bundt pan, followed by half the cinnamon swirl mixture. Repeat for marbling.
  5. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Cool the cake in the pan for 15 minutes, then invert onto a plate. Prepare the glaze and drizzle over the cake.
