6 tablespoons bourbon
BUTTERED ALMONDS

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!

This recipe goes back 20 years from my mom. Have been making it ever since; especially good for guests. I serve with garlic mashed potatoes & vegetable. Nothing but compliments! Have never changed ingredients.
