Lemon Whiskey Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously butter 10- to 12-cup Bundt pan; dust with flour.
• Stir cake mix and pudding mix in large bowl to blend. Beat in eggs, then milk, 1/4 cup whiskey, oil and lemon peel. Mix nuts with flour in small bowl; mix into batter. Transfer to prepared pan.
• Bake cake until tester inserted near center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Set pan with cake on rack while preparing glaze.
• Stir sugar, butter and remaining 1/2 cup whiskey in heavy small saucepan over medium-low heat until butter melts, sugar dissolves and syrup bubbles, about 5 minutes. Spoon hot syrup over cake. Cool cake completely in pan. Turn cake out of pan. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and store airtight at room temperature.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a bundt pan and dust with bread crumbs. In a mixer fitted with a paddle, beat butter, 1 1/4 cups sugar and lemon zest until fluffy and fragrant. Beat in vanilla and 2 eggs. Add remaining eggs. Beat again.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add half the mixture to the batter and mix on low speed until just incorporated. Add remaining mixture and mix again until almost smooth; the rest must be done by hand using a spatula.
• Scrape the batter into the bundt pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Meanwhile, combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar with 1/3 cup water in a saucepan. Boil until bubbles grow small and make fine snapping sounds, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Stir in the whiskey.
• When the cake is done, let it cool for a few minutes. Unmold onto a serving plate with a lip. (The whiskey may pool at the base.) Pierce the top of the cake in about 20 places with a skewer, then pour the whiskey syrup over it. Once the cake is cool, cover with plastic wrap. This cake is best served the next day.
