    List of Ingredients




    Cake
    1 box (18.5) yellow cake mix
    1 pkg. instant vanilla pudding. Do not use the no-sugar kind.
    1 ounce of whiskey
    4 eggs
    1 cup milk
    ½ cup oil
    1 cup chopped walnuts
    2 tsp. flour

    Glaze
    1 stick of butter (8 Tbsp.)
    ¾ cup sugar
    ½ cup whiskey

    Recipe



    *Grease and flour tube pan & pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.

    *Combine cake and pudding mixes with whiskey and eggs, beating well.

    *Beat in milk and oil.

    *Toss walnuts in flour and fold into batter.

    *Pour into a greased and floured 10 inch tube pan.

    *Bake at 325 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven and leave in the pan while preparing glaze.

    Glaze:

    *Heat together butter, sugar and whiskey on medium heat until butter is melted, sugar dissolves and mixture bubbles.

    *Pour hot mixture over cake still in pan. The cake must not rise above edges of the pan. If it does this, trim around edges. (That will happen if a smaller pan is used).

    *Cool in pan for 2 hours.

    *At the end of 2 hours, invert pan and remove cake onto cake dish. It may come out slowly, so allow time for it to slide out.

    *Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours. Whiskey will continue to soak into cake.

    *When ready to serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

    This cake can be made one week ahead if wrapped and refrigerated. It improves with aging.
