Best Honey Bun Cake is perfect for a holiday get together! It serves 12 people and it disappears very quickly. My Grandma used to bake this cake for holiday potlucks, so I had to get the recipe from her. All of us kids would beg for a slice right when the party started. I think you will enjoy it at your next family event.

We enjoy Starbucks® Holiday Blend Ground Coffee 10 oz and  Starbucks® Holiday Blend K-Cup® Packs 16 ct at our family get-together to go with this Best Honey Bun Cake. Starbucks® Holiday Blend coffee tastes like sweet maple with a smooth finish.

I like that I can find my favorite Starbucks®coffee at Walmart. There is a fun touch screen at the end of the aisle that shows different coffee and desserts pairing and holiday coffee bar tips. It’s great that my  favorite Starbucks®coffees can be found in one place.
