Cinnamon Filling

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Icing

1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla

Prepare cinnamon filling; reserve. Beat sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs in a bowl on medium speed. Beat in flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Add sour cream. Fill greased bundt pan, 1/3 batter, 1/3 filling, repeat twice. Bake at 325 degrees for about 1 hour.
