8. In a small bowl, mix together the chopped nuts and brown sugar.
9. Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan, then sprinkle half of the nut mixture over the top.
10. Pour the remaining batter on top of the nut mixture, then sprinkle the remaining nut mixture over the top.
11. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
12. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
