For over 25 years, the only time I will eat this cake is if a family member bakes it or if I buy a slice from a true soul food restaurant. Please do not attempt to buy this cake from your local grocery store or bake it using the recipe on the side of a cake box. You will be extremely disappointed.
I hope you love my family's recipe! Let me know. By the way, I love to eat this cake without the glaze.

Jennifer's version of a Sock-It-To-Me Cake is out of this world good. The from scratch cake is like a buttery, tender pound cake with a cinnamon walnut filling. The filling is almost like a cinnamon roll filling. It makes this cake really special. Drizzling the glaze on top adds just the right amount of sweetness. This is a divine dessert or a heavenly treat served with a cup a cup of coffee.
Note: This cake is really big and it takes up an entire bundt pan when baked. The bake time is long which is needed for the cake size. The edges do burn slightly but the cake is still delicious.
