This is a perfect base recipe for Sock It To Me Cake! I prefer from scratch, and I get so many requests for this cake. I've altered this recipe somewhat to make it a little richer for my own personal tastes, but I highly recommend this! Thanks for contributing.
First of all I wish that when posting these recipes the information given is correct. When baking time is off and ingredients aren't to the letter making a quality product is next to impossible. I baked this cake as instructed and the result was terrible. 90 minutes is way too long for this cake to bake and I do not know if it was a mistake but 3 and I love cinnamon tablespoons of cinnamon is a bit much. And not only that but after baking for an hour the crust was hard and the cake was dry. I wasted 20 dollars on ingredients and was less than pleased. If I try it again I'll deffinitely make modifications.

This is basically a sour cream pound cake with a strip of nuts and spice in the center. The flavor of the cake is very good but it came out a bit dry. Although 90 minutes is a good rule of thumb for a traditional pound cake the oven temp for this one is a bit higher so a shorter baking time may yield a moister cake. It's definitely worth baking again.
This cake was incredibly moist and delicious. In the past I've used other recipes and always felt the cake was too dry. I did make variations to the recipe. 1. I only added 2 TBSP of cinnamon I added another 1/2tsp of mexican real vanilla (delish!) I also added a little butter in the cinnamon sugar nut layer. It helped bind and saturate the layer. The biggest thing is that I only baked the cake for 65 minutes in the oven. 90 would have RUINED it. So I guess I should say that with the tips people gave and some of my own it became the best Sock It To Me can I've ever EVER had. I would highly suggest the way I baked it.
This was the best from-scratch cake I have ever made. We all loved the smooth, light texture and the cinnamon/sugar/nuts filling. I did reduce the cinnamon to 1 Tbsp. instead of 3, otherwise it would have been a bit too strong. Other than that, this recipe is perfect!
This cake was easy to bake and the taste was great! Everyone thinks I'm a good cook! (if only they really knew) Try it and see but most of all TASTE it!
i made this cake and sock'd it to all of my in laws not only was it great but i made it from scratch unlike their cakes.
A very good cake. I curious if there was a typo on the cinnamon. It was a bit much for my taste. Next time I will use 3 tsp. instead of the 3 tbsp that it called for.
Made this cake for a birthday girl at work co-workers loved it. It is not too sweet. I did increase the nuts to 1 cup. The birthday girl was trying keep it from disappearing so that she could take it home.
