Blackberry Wine Cake


I found this handwritten recipe tucked away in a recipe box a few days ago.Someone had given it to me years ago apparently. I'm certainly glad they did.  

1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 white deluxe cake mix
3 oz. box blackberry jello
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup blackberry wine
4 eggs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  

Grease and flour bundt pan and sprinkle pecans in bottom of pan. Set aside.

Mix remaining ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed until well combined.

Add batter on top of nuts in bundt pan.

Bake cake for 50 minutes.

While cake is baking, make glaze.

2 sticks butter
1 cup blackberry wine
1 box confectioner's sugar

In a medium saucepan, over low heat, melt the butter. Add wine and sugar and stir until well combined.

When cake comes out of oven, slowly pour glaze over cake.  Leave in pan 25 minutes. Place on serving plate.
