This was posted in the PG and just sounds so incredibly good.
Is there ANY way possible to low carb this?
I can pretty much figure out the swirl mixture and glaze....but what would I sub for the box of yellow cake mix?

Honey Bun Cake

1 box yellow cake mix
4 eggs
3/4 c. oil
1 c. sour cream

Swirl mixture
1 c. brown sugar
2 T cinnamon
.
Glaze
1 c. powdered sugar
2 T. milk
1 t. vanilla

Mix cake ingredients together. In another bowl, mix swirl ingredients. Pour half of the batter in a pan. Swirl 3/4 of the swirl mixture through. Top with remaining batter and swirl mixture. Bake @ 325 for 35-40 min. While cake is warm, glaze top of cake.

SHoot Kevinpa, It looks like you are a very organized person! I sure wish i was! I always start out with good intentions but never keep it up!!!

Thanks for the tip though.

Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this heading. This cake (the original version) is one of my families favorites. I think I make it a couple times a month for the kids and for work. Everyone loves it. I got the original recipe off of the All Recipes web site. I never even thought about being able to do a low carb version DH and I could eat. Thanks for the suggestions
