Like most recipes… got this from a friend… he likes to use tequila. The tradition version has an Island-Beach theme… but you can do anything you like. Simple is always best… you’re gonna eat it anyway… right?
You can do the fancy party version ( don’t eat the shells)… or keep it simple… make my choice… a bundt cake.
I also like the Kahlua & Cream version. Turns out great as a Bundt Cake… just dribble a Cinnamon Glaze over the top of the cake and sprinkle with some fine grind netmeg… and enjoy! Just get the 2 ltr bottle of Kahlua and 2 quarts of half & half to use in place of the tequilla.
Thanks Bryan for the great recipe!
Tequilla Xmas Cake
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 cup water
1 tsp. salt
1 cup brown sugar
Lemon juice
4 large eggs
Nuts
1 bottle tequila
2 cups dried fruit
Sample the tequila to check quality. Take a large bowl; check the tequila again to be sure it is of the highest quality. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point, it is best to make sure the tequila is still OK. Try another cup just in case. Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 eegs and add to the bowl and chuck iin the cup of dried fruit. Pick the fruit up off the floor. Mix on the turner. If the fried druit getas stuck in the beaterers, just pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the tequila to test for tonsisticity. Next, sift 2 cups of salt, or something. Check the tequila. Now shift the lemon ice strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 s and try not to fall over. Don't forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through the window. Finish the tequila and wipe the counter with the cat.
Cherry Mristmas!
