You don’t have to worry about the alcoholic content in this cake! The alcohol bakes out of the cake in the oven. You could probably use any kind of cake mix for this recipe. Somebody gave me this recipe in an email. It’s very tasty!
Momma’s Wine Cake:
1 (18.25 ounce) package butter recipe cake mix or chocolate cake mix
1 (5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix or chocolate pudding mix
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup white wine
4 eggs
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray the inside of a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle white sugar inside the pan. (This will create a great sugary crust on the cake while baking.)
In medium bowl combine the cake mix, instant vanilla pudding, vegetable oil, white wine, and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer for 5 minutes. I mixed it by hand. It only took a few minutes.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool on rack in pan for 10 minutes then remove cake from pan to rack. Let cake cool completely before slicing. Garnish sliced cake with a dollop of whipped cream or dust with confectioners’ sugar and sliced strawberries. I didn’t garnish mine. I just removed it from the pan and we sliced and ate it! Yummy!
I’d like to try this using another variation: Yesterday, I purchased a lemon cake mix and a box of lemon instant pudding from the store. I’d like to try this recipe using those two ingredients. I’d also like to add a little bit of lemon extract to the cake if I do this? Not sure if I’ll add the extract, though. It would be interesting to see how it turns out. I probably won’t get around to trying this for awhile though – at least a few months! I’ll be sure to blog about it once I try it!
