Marsala Spice Cake

Marsala Spice Cake

My new favorite cake! Just the smell alone is ambrosia. I found this recipe in the Cooking With Wine, Selected Recipes Featuring Holland House Cooking Wine mini cook book.

3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

1 box (18.5 ounces) yellow cake mix

1 package (3 3/4 ounces) vanilla flavor instant pudding mix

1 cup Holland House Marsala Cooking Wine

1/4 additional Holland House Marsala Cooking Wine for topping

1/2 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

1/2 teaspoon each cinnamon and cloves

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Sprinkle nuts evenly in bottom of greased and floured Bundt pan. Combine remaining ingredients in large mixer bowl. Blend, then heat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into pan. Bake in preheated 325 degree Fahrenheit  oven for 50 minutes or  until done. Cool in pan for 10 minutes turn out onto plate. Brush warm cake with the additional Holland House Marsala Cooking Wine and 1/3 cup sugar in small sauce pan. Heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. 

Enjoy!
