\"\"<\/a>Our water aerobics class is so much fun! While we are huffing and puffing to get fit, we often chat with one instructor (between exercise moves) about favorite recipes, current events, and more. Here is Kathleen G’s recipe for her favorite Wine Cake \u2013 my mother called it Sherry Cake, and it is REALLY DELICIOUS! (the alcohol bakes out\u00a0\u2013\u00a0the rich aroma and flavor remains)<\/p>\n

WINE CAKE<\/p>\n

1 box yellow cake mix
\n1 small box vanilla pudding mix
\n3\/4 cup vegetable oil\"\"<\/a>
\n3\/4 cup sherry
\n4 eggs
\n1 tsp cinnamon
\n1\/4 tsp nutmeg<\/p>\n

Mix all ingredients well with a mixer. Bake in a greased bundt pan for 40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Let stand for 40 minutes before serving.<\/p>\n

FROSTING<\/p>\n

1\/4 cup powdered sugar
\n1\/4 tsp nutmeg
\n2 Tbsp. sherry<\/p>\n

Whisk together (add sugar and sherry to get desired consistency) and pour over cake. (I poke the top of the cake with a fork so the frosting will soak in. I also wait til the frosting isn’t as wet and I sift powdered sugar over the top for a prettier effect!). Enjoy with coffee!! Kathleen<\/p>\n
