I have a thing for boozy cakes! Have you tried my German red wine cake?<\/a> This whiskey-soaked dark chocolate Bundt cake recipe is perfect for those days when you feel extra extravagant. <\/p>\n

Let me specify just how special this particular chocolate whiskey cake is. I am a great, great fan of chocolate cundt cakes, and all boozy cake recipes. <\/p>\n\"whiskey\n

A Whiskey Drizzle makes this Chocolate Bundt Cake special<\/h2>\n

The bundt cake recipe is inspired by a recipe from Molly Wizenberg who again adapted it from the New York Times. We are talking about a rich, dark chocolate cake made with not only a quarter-cup of instant espresso but an entire cup or whiskey!<\/p>\n

Yes that is ONE CUP, of Irish whiskey. Or any whiskey, Jack Daniels, Bourbon…whatever you want. There is whisky in the batter, and then there is a drizzle as well. After baking, we pour a little bit of bourbon into a teaspoon, and then shake the teaspoon over the cake. I\u2019m guessing that I used 1 1\/2tbsp worth in all. <\/span><\/p>\n

This Irish cake has a soft, moist, tightly woven crumb, and it makes the kitchen smell like winter and warmth and cozy dinner parties. It smells very chocolatey and very boozy and this is what it tastes like.<\/p>\n

I like to cut a little slice while the cake is still a bit warm, and eating it, standing over the kitchen counter. Living my best life.<\/p>\n

I love Whiskey Desserts <\/h2>\n

What a cake. I’ll just say 1 cup of whiskey….PLUS more for soaking. But don’t worry, the Irish car bomb of a chocolate cake doesn’t ONLY taste like whiskey.<\/p>\n

If you can, try to make this whisky-soaked chocolate bundt cake a day before you want to serve it, to allow the flavors to mellow and meld. On the first day, the flavor of the whiskey threatens to overpower the chocolate, but after a little overnight rest, the perfect balance is achieved and the chocolate and whiskey compliment each other instead of competing.<\/p>\n

I could have sipped the cake batter out of a martini glass with a straw. But in this case, it’s worth the wait here!<\/p>\n

Because after baking, the juicy chocolate cake is soaked in whiskey again! <\/p>\n

I love serving this with a dollop of cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Or even an Irish coffee?<\/p>\n

By the way, the chocolate cake lasts forever. We ate it for over a week and it just kept getting better.
\nSo if you bake today, your after-work mood is saved for a whole week.<\/p>\n

You can bake with just about any type of whiskey, but for the best results, it’s best to stick to baking with bourbon whiskey<\/b>. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
I have made this cake with Jack Daniel\u2019s and loved it even though it is not a bourbon. Although it is made almost exactly like bourbon, and pretty much tastes like bourbon, Jack Daniel\u2019s is a little bit different so its makers prefer to call it Tennessee whiskey.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
