Amaretto Bundt Cake~



This is another delicious recipe shared by a good friend. Even though it's not a totally 'from scratch' cake it is so flavorful and well worth trying! We love it.



The flavor of Amaretto is so romantic that this would also make a beautiful cake to serve your sweetheart on Valentine's Day.

Amaretto Bundt Cake

1 pkg chocolate cake mix
1 pkg instant chocolate pudding
4 eggs
½ cup each of:

- cold water
- canola oil
- Amaretto

Blend and mix 1 minute.

Pour into greased and floured bundt or tube pan.

Bake in preheated 325 oven for 1 hour.

GLAZE:

4 T (1/2 stick) butter
½ cup sugar
2 T water (approximate)
¼ cup amaretto (maybe a little more)

Melt butter in saucepan. Stir in water and sugar.
Boil 5 minutes stirring constantly (watch carefully).

Remove from heat and stir in liquor. Allow to cool slightly and drizzle over cooled bundt cake.
