What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This is a great recipe. I didn't use all the ingredients, but it was delish. I used Salami for the bacon and fresh spinach for the filling. For the sauce, I added all the leftover filling ingredients at the end and it was fantastic. My husband loved it. Thank You for the recipe. Karen
