Recipe: Black Russian Cake with Kahlua Glaze (using cake mix, Bundt cake)

BLACK RUSSIAN CAKE

1 (2-layer-size) box chocolate cake mix (without pudding)
1 (4-serving-size) instant chocolate pudding mix
1/2 cup cooking oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup very hot tap water
3 teaspoons instant coffee granules
1/4 Cup Kahlua
1/4 Cup Vodka
1/4 Creme de Cacao
FOR THE GLAZE:
1 cup sifted confectioner's sugar
2 tablespoons strong coffee
2 Tablespoons Kahlua
2 Tablespoons Creme de Cacao

Grease a Bundt pan with solid shortening. Dust with flour.

In a large bowl, sift cake mix, breaking up any lumps. Add pudding mix, oil and eggs along with the coffee granules dissolved in 1/2 cup very hot tap water. Add Kahlua, vodka and creme de cacao. Blend batter well and pour into prepared cake pan.

Bake in oven preheated to 325 degree F oven for 45 minutes to an hour. Check for doneness with a toothpick - it should come out clean when inserted in the middle of the cake.

Mix glaze ingredients together. Poke deep holes in the cake with a skewer or cake tester. Pour glaze over cake and let it soak. When completely cool, turn cake onto serving plate.
