Add the chopped walnuts to a small sauté pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, while waiting for the glaze to soak into the cake, prepare your candied walnuts. Let the cake sit in the Bundt pan for 45 minutes to soak in the glaze. Next, measure out 1/2 cup of the prepared glaze, reserving the rest of the glaze, and pour the 1/2 cup over the cake. Then, using a cake tester or wooden skewer, poke some holes into the cake. When the cake is fully cooked, remove the Bundt pan from the oven. Alternatively, you can also lightly simmer the mixture for a few minutes to take out the bite of the whiskey, if preferred. Then heat until the sugar fully dissolves, keeping over low heat until the cake is ready. When the butter has melted, stir in the brown sugar.įollow with the whiskey, fresh orange juice, and vanilla extract, stirring to combine.

The best part of this recipe is it is made with cake mix and instant vanilla pudding mix, making this cake both super easy to make and incredibly moist! Using a Bundt pan makes this cake look like it took you all day to make, but the hardest part of this recipe is patiently waiting for the glaze to soak into the cake before removing it from the Bundt pan.īefore beginning, spray a 10-inch Bundt pan with cooking spray, and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.įirst, add 1 tablespoon flour and 1 cup chopped walnuts to a food storage container with a lid.

I added some candied walnuts on top because, why not, but feel free to omit them. My version is a bit different than the one my mom makes, but the general gist is still there. Recently, we were celebrating a friend’s birthday and I thought a Walnut Whiskey Cake would be the perfect birthday cake for him! My mom makes this cake for basically all extended family celebrations, and it has become a favorite of mine.
Whiskey Cake is something that has shown up to family gatherings since before I can even remember.
