Mom's Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Nuts

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a bundt pan to ensure easy release later.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
3. Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract for a rich flavor.
4. In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan. In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chopped nuts, and cinnamon to create a delicious filling.
7. Sprinkle half of this cinnamon-nut mixture over the batter in the pan. Then, pour the remaining batter on top and finish with the rest of the cinnamon-nut mixture for that irresistible crunch.
8. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before gently removing it.
9. Slice the cake and serve warm with freshly brewed coffee or tea for a delightful breakfast or afternoon treat.
