Prep: 15 min. Bake: 30 min.

Ingredients

1 package (18-1/4 ounces) yellow cake mix
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
4 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients; beat on low for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Combine pecans, sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over batter. Cut through batter with a knife to swirl pecan mixture.
Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Meanwhile in a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and orange juice until smooth; drizzle over warm coffee cake. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 12-15 servings.
