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 an awesome way to use up whey which could otherwise go to waste! I added 1/2 tablespoon of sugar to the recipe. With some of the mix I rolled it thin like pastry and when cooked these were like crackers. When made 3/4 inch thick the result was more like a scone. I made these the same way I make pastry. Use frozen butter and process in food processor with a little of the flour until fine crumb type mix. Add remaining dry ingredients and mix well. Tip into large pot and add whey. Mix until just combined. Overmixing gives a tough result.
