Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix (w/o pudding if you can find it)*
  • 6 oz. box instant chocolate pudding
  • 1/3 C. sugar
  • 1 C. vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 C. water
  • 1/4 C. vodka
  • 1/4 C. Kahula

For the Kahula Glaze:

  • 1/2 C. powdered sugar
  • 1/4 C. Kahula

Instructions

To Make the Cake:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a bundt pan with Pam or your preferred method of greasing a cake pan. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix with hand mixer for about 2 – 3 minutes on medium speed. Pour batter in prepared bundt pan. Bake 45 minutes. Let cool about 10-15 then invert on serving platter. Drizzle glaze on top of warm cake. Then, if you’re like me, you’ll drizzle more glaze on top again when it has cooled completely.

To Make Glaze:

  1. Blend together powdered sugar and Kahula to make a glaze. Pour over warm cake. When cake is cooled you can garnish with berries and sprinkle powdered sugar on top if you want to make it look pretty…or just dig in and enjoy!

Notes

*Standard cake mixes have fewer ounces than they did in the past. Lately I’ve been using Betty Crocker’s Betty’s Original Recipe Scratch Cake Mix – Golden Yellow. It is 19.2 oz. and works wonderfully in this recipe.

Alternatively, you can buy two boxes of cake mix and add 6 Tbls. of additional cake mix to increase the amount.

Another alternative, make a cake mix upsizer by combining 1 1/2 C. flour, 1 C. sugar, 2. tsp. baking powder, 1/4 tsp. baking soda.  Use 6 Tbls. to boxed cake mix.  Store remaining upsizer mixture in jar.
