Add eggs, oil, and the cake mix. Mix until well combined.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nIn a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. If adding nuts, mix in as well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nPour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the brown sugar cinnamon mixture evenly over the batter. Dollop the remaining cake batter over the top of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Spread in an even layer for full cake coverage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nBake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n When the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it cool for 5 minutes. Poke holes over the entire cake.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nDrizzle the glaze over the top of the warm cake.
