Soft, tender cinnamon baked donuts made with cake mix and sour cream, layered with a gooey brown sugar-cinnamon swirl and rolled in cinnamon sugar while warm. Easy, cozy, and no frying required.
0 Preheat the oven to 375℉. Spray a donut pan with no-stick spray and set aside.
1 Mix the cake mix and sour cream until all of the sour cream is mixed in and it creates a thick dough. The dough will be thick like a quick bread dough.
2 Spoon the dough into the prepared donut pans, filling them about 1/3 of the way up.
9 Smooth the dough with wet fingers.
11 Sprinkle a layer of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture carefully over the dough in the donut pan.
12 Top with another layer of the donut dough.
3 Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until an instant read thermometer shows 195℉.
4 Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before turning out of the pan and gently rolling in the cinnamon sugar.
