Ingredients
1 box Duncan Hines yellow cake mix
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1 box vanilla pudding instant mix
2 teaspoons cinnamon
4 eggs
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup oil
1/2 cup white wine (any type)
Glaze
1 stick butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup white wine
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, brown sugar, white sugar, pudding mix, and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly.
Add eggs, water, oil, and white wine to the dry ingredients. Mix by hand or with a hand mixer until smooth.
Grease a bundt pan well, then pour in the batter evenly.
Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze by melting butter with sugar and white wine in a saucepan. Stir until well combined.
When the cake is done, remove it from the oven and immediately pour the glaze over the hot cake while still in the pan.
Allow the cake to cool slightly, then carefully flip it onto a plate to serve.
