Cocktail Cake

This is one of my absolute favorite recipes. I'm not sure exactly when I was introduced to this. It must have been at a family party since it is from one of my great aunts. This is an incredibly simple recipe and makes a perfect cake. I recently bought a bundt pan, and this is the perfect cake for that. It is just a tad sweet with a subtle flavor of chocolate and coffee. It is called a Black Russian cake because it has a bit of Kahlua and vodka baked in. This cake is pure yum and it is sure to disappear really quickly.


Black Russian Cake

Cake:
  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 small box instant chocolate pudding
  • 1 1/2 c. vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 c. water
  • 1/4 c. Kahlua
  • 1/4 c. vodka
Icing
  • 3/4 c. powdered sugar
  • 3 Tbsp Kahlua
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Grease a bundt pan. Combine all cake ingredients and beat with a mixer. Bake 1 hour or until done. Cool for 15 minutes in pan, then remove to serving platter. Wait 10 minutes and pour icing on.
