SPICED SHERRY CAKE



Spiced Sherry Cake image

My mother received this recipe from a friend years ago when fluted tube pans first became popular. The cake lasts a few days in the refrigerator, if you don't eat it all right away. I personally love to serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. -Debbie Pelletier, Jupiter, Florida

MOM'S SHERRY CAKE



Mom's Sherry Cake image

Simple, but wonderful!! This was my favorite cake that Mom would make when I was little... for that matter, since I wasn't really that fond of cake, it's probably the only reason I ever ate any. Whenever I make this for gatherings, everybody asks for the recipe... and then begs me to make it for the next gathering, too. :)

Time 55m

Yield 1 cake, 6-9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix
4 eggs
3/4 cup oil
3/4 cup cream sherry
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon cocoa
1/2-1 cup powdered sugar
milk

Steps:

  • (This recipe has three separate portions to combine together: the cake, the cinnamon mixture, and the frosting.) Combine cake ingredients and mix for 5 minutes in mixer on medium speed.
  • Combine cinnamon mixture.
  • Butter the sides and bottom of Bundt or angel food tin.
  • Sprinkle part of cinnamon mixture into pan covering sides and bottom.
  • Then pour cake batter into pan in three alternating layers with cinnamon mixture, ending with cinnamon mixture.
  • Bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes, checking to make sure the sugar on the outside of the cake does not burn.
  • Let cool; place on serving plate.
  • Mix together powdered sugar and enough milk to make a "drizzly" consistency of frosting, then drizzle over the sides (both inside and outsides).
  • Let frosting set before serving.
  • Note: if your oven runs hot, you might want to try baking for 35 minutes to begin with, then remove cake from oven and taste-check a portion of the cake which doesn't show easily (such as the inner ring) to make sure the sugar coating isn't burning and the cake isn't drying out. Thank you, Michelle S., for the input that prompted me to edit the recipe for this! :).
