- 2/3 cup vegetable oil
Filling
- 1 cup brown sugar

- Pour half of the batter into a 9 x 13 inch baking pan that has been coated with Pam. (If you desire, you can use a Bundt cake pan.)
- Mix the brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans. Sprinkle this over the cake batter in the pan.
- Pour the rest of the cake batter over the brown sugar mixture.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes. (Bake for 5 to 10 minutes longer if you us a Bundt pan.)

Notes
* 18.25 ounce boxes of cake mix have been replaced by 16.5 ounce and 15.25 ounce boxes. To compensate for the volume loss in a 16 ounce box, whisk 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour into the dry cake mix before proceeding with the recipe. To compensate for the volume loss in a 15.25 ounce box, add 1/2 cup + 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder.
