Vanilla pudding mix 3.4 oz.
Light brown sugar ¼ cup

Vegetable oil ½ cup
Sour cream 1 cup

Glaze Ingredients:
Ingredients Amount
Salted butter ½ cup
Sweet white wine ¼ cup
Granulated sugar 1 cup
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F. Grease a bundt pan with nonstick baking spray and set it aside.
Prepare the batter: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, vanilla pudding mix, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, eggs, whole milk, vegetable oil, sour cream, and sweet white wine. Beat the mixture until it is fully combined and smooth.

Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean and the edges of the cake have pulled away from the pan.

Make the glaze: While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, heat the salted butter, sweet white wine, and granulated sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Remove the glaze from heat.
Glaze the cake: Once the cake is done baking, use a bamboo skewer or toothpick to poke holes all over the bottom of the cake while it is still in the pan. Pour the glaze over the cake and allow it to soak up the delicious mixture for 15-20 minutes.
Remove from pan: After the glaze has been absorbed into the cake, loosen the sides of the pan with a spatula and carefully turn the cake out onto a cake plate.
Serve and enjoy: Slice the cake and serve it to your eager guests, who are sure to be delighted by this sweet and decadent treat.
