Blarney Blaster
Non-Alcoholic Version of the Blarney Blaster
Steamed Irish Whiskey Pudding
Irish Whiskey Cake
3/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 box chocolate cake mix
1 4-ounce package instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup milk
4 eggs
1/2 cup Irish whiskey
Glaze:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup Irish whiskey
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a bundt or tube pan. Sift flour or
cocoa powder into pan and shake to distribute evenly. Pour out excess.
Sprinkle nuts over bottom of pan.
Combine cake and pudding mix in a large mixing bowl. Stir in oil and
milk to moisten. Add eggs and beat. Slowly add whiskey and beat until
smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 40 to 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, make glaze: Combine sugar and water in saucepan; bring to a
boil. Add butter and stir to melt. Boil 3 minutes, stirring
constantly. Remove from heat and stir in whiskey. Cool slightly, then
pour into squeeze bottle.
Remove cake from oven. While cake is still hot, insert nozzle of
squeeze bottle into the bottom of cake and inject glaze. Repeat at
several points around cake, using up half the glaze. (If you don't
have a squeeze bottle, poke holes into bottom of cake and pour glaze
over holes). Let cake rest 5 minutes, then unmold.
Pour remaining glaze over top of cake.
Variations: If you prefer a non-chocolate cake, use yellow cake mix
and vanilla pudding instead of chocolate. For a nuttier cake, add 1/4
cup chopped nuts into batter.
