Instructions

Make the filling: In a small bowl, stir together the pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 10-cup Bundt pan with butter.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Continue mixing on medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until light and fluffy, about 8 minutes.
Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and mix on medium speed, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add the vanilla and mix until combined.
Add one third of the flour and mix on medium speed until just combined, then add half of the sour cream and continue mixing until just combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, then continue alternating additions of flour and sour cream. Use the rubber spatula to bring the batter together.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and tap the pan against the counter to settle the batter and release any air bubbles. Sprinkle the filling evenly over the batter. Spoon the remaining batter on top and carefully spread in an even layer to cover the filling.
Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 60–70 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
While the cake cools, make the icing: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
Invert the cake onto a serving plate and remove the Bundt pan. Pour the glaze over the cake to cover completely. Garnish with pecan halves.
Slice and serve.
Enjoy!
