Preparation
Step 1
To make the filling
In a small bowl, toss together toffee bits, sugar, walnuts and cinnamon.
To make the cake batter
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing until well combined after each. Mix in vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Beat for 3 minutes. Scoop about one-third of the batter into a bundt pan coated with a nonstick spray that has flour added (I like Pam with Flour or Baker's Joy). Scatter the top with half of toffee mixture. Spoon half of remaining batter into pan. Top with remaining toffee mixture. Spoon remaining over the top. Drizzle the top with the melted butter.
Bake until golden and a wooden skewer placed in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached, about 40 to 50 minutes. Remove and place pan on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze
