Buttershots Cake

So, this one is super easy but always a smash hit (it was reduced to near crumb-status in about 2 hrs at work today)! It's one of the only recipes I have that uses a boxed cake mix anywhere NEAR the mixing bowl, but even the most dedicated of baking queens needs a short cut every once in a while.  I also usually "splash" a little extra buttershots in both sections of the recipe for good measure.  :)

Cake:

1 Box Moist Deluxe Yellow Cake Mix

1 Pkg Vanilla Instant Pudding

1/2  C Buttershots

1/2  C Veggie Oil

1/2  C Water

4 Eggs

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease the bundt pant thoroughly.  

Mix cake mix and pudding in a bowl.  Add everything else and beat well.  Pour batter into bundt pan and bake for 45 minutes.

Remove from oven and immediately pour glaze evenly over cake.  I use a plastic spoon or other such nearby kitchen utensil to ensure the glaze gets to the bottom of the pan.  If it doesn't really get down into the pan, it doesn't soak into the cake as well - and the soaked portions of the cake are to live for!  Let the cake cool completely for at least 30 minutes before turning over onto a plate.  It's totally optional to sprinkle with powdered sugar, but do that after the cake has set out for a while so it doesn't absorb into the cake.

You should start the glaze about 5 minutes before the cake emerges fully cooked from the oven.  

Glaze recipe (simply mix all ingredients over low heat until smooth):

1  C Sugar

1/2  C Buttershots

1 Stick Margarine
