Whiskey Cake

Whiskey Cake

1 box yellow cake mix
1 box instant vanilla pudding
4 eggs
½ cup oil
1 cup milk
1 shot whiskey (1 ½ ounces)
1 cup walnuts

Combine all ingredients. Mix for three minutes. Pour into a well greased tube pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

Topping

1 stick butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup whiskey

Melt butter. Add sugar and whiskey. Cook until sugar is dissolved and is a syrupy texture. After removing the cake from the oven, poke holes (with fork) in the top (leave cake in pan while doing this). Pour some of the syrup mixture over cake. Let cake sit in pan 15-20 minutes. Remove cake from pan and brush remaining syrup on sides and top of cake.
