Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter
4 eggs -- lightly beaten
1 cup milk
3 1/2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup tequila
Tequila Cake Glaze
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup water
pinch salt
1/4 cup tequila
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier
For cake: Cream sugar, butter and eggs together. Stir in milk, then add the flour, baking powder, and salt and beat.
Add the tequila and beat until smooth. The secret of this cake is to beat the batter very well until it becomes shiny.
Fold the batter into a greased and floured bundt pan.
Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour or until done when toothpick
inserted in the cake comes out clean. Cool cake on wire rack, then remove from pan., place on cake server or
plate and top with the Glaze.
For glaze: Place the sugars, water and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Continue to cook until the mixture
becomes semi-caramelized. Remove from heat, stir in tequila and Grand Marnier and pour over the cake while glaze is still warm.
