Ingredients
  

  • 1-3/4 cups sugar plus 2 Tbsp
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 can evaporated milk 5 oz
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 jar caramel topping 8 oz

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 deg Fahrenheit. Grease a 12-cup bunt pan or fluted tube pan with butter or margarine. Mix 2 tablespoons of sugar with 2 teaspoons of cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle mixture over the inside of the pan, turning it to evenly coat. Shake out any excess.
  • Mix the remaining 1-3/4 cups of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the evaporated milk, sour cream, melted margarine/butter, vanilla and eggs into the dry ingredients until well blended. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cake. Let the cake stand for 30 minutes and remove it from the pan. Cool completely, about an hour.
  • Microwave caramel sauce according to jar instructions, and drizzle over the cooled cake.
