A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

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.
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!

Unfortunately there was nothing that I liked about this cake. It was fairly dry and we didn't care for the taste.

NOT the most moist cake I have ever made. The icing was wonderful.
I love that this cake is strictly homemade, not one of those crappy box cakes. And I only have one word to describe it, TASTY!!! I made it for my mom's birthday and she loved it!

I did this recipe as a single cake, instead of a layered cake, and it still turned out beautifully (obviously used less icing though, and baked for a bit longer) was a big hit at work!
