Delicious dishes

Lauren's note: This cake is not exactly healthy, but so worth all the extra calories! Great for a special occasion. It's super moist and smells like a chocolately cocktail--what more could you want?

Black Russian Cake

1 package yellow cake mix
1 5.9 ounce package of instant chocolate pudding mix
4 large eggs
1 c vegetable oil
1/2 c vodka
1/2 c water
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c Kahlua, divided
1/2 c powdered sugar

Directions:

1. Beat first 7 ingredients and 1/4 cup of Kahlua at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan.

2. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.

3. Combine remaining 1/4 c Kahlua with the 1/2 c powdered sugar, stirring until smooth.
4. Let cake cool slightly and remove from pan. Puncture cake surface to make small holes with a toothpick or a fork. Brush with glaze and let harden. (The glaze will almost disappear into the cake and will not look like the picture above).
