Ingredients
- 1 18.5 oz.pkg. Duncan Hines Golden Cake Mix (make sure to get "Golden" and not "Yellow"
- 1 3.4 oz. pkg. Jello brand Vanilla Pudding (NOT "Instant" pudding)
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup Bourbon
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Butter and flour a bundt cake pan - mine is about 10" in diameter.
Sprinkle the nuts around the bottom of the pan.
Mix all the cake ingredients together and pour into the pan on top of the nuts.
Bake 1 hour.
For the sauce:
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup bourbon
While the cake is baking, make the sauce by mixing the sauce ingredients together in a pot over medium heat until the sugar has melted.
When the cake comes out of the oven, immediately pour the sauce over it while it is still in the pan. (If you want, you can use a wooden skewer or chopstick to poke holes in the cake to allow the sauce to reach deeper into the cake first, but I usually don't).
Cool, and then remove pan by inverting cake onto a serving plate.
