RECIPE: CHOCOLATE IRISH TIPSY CAKE
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*=
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
INGREDIENTS:
1 package chocolate cake mix
1 (3-4-ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
3/4 cup Irish whiskey or bourbon, divided
1/2 cup cooking oil
4 jumbo or extra large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
whipped cream for garnish
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, 1/2 cup Irish
whiskey, and oil, add eggs and beat at medium speed of an
electric mixer for 4 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl as
necessary. Spoon into a greased and floured 10-inch bundt or
tube pan. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (350 degrees) for
45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the cake comes
out clean. When cake is almost done, prepare syrup. Combine
sugar, butter, water, and lemon juice in a small heavy saucepan.
Bring to a boil slowly, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
Remove from heat and stir in remaining 1/4 cup Irish whiskey
or bourbon. Turn cake out onto two large sheets of aluminum
foil placed together to form the shape of a cross. Let cake
cool for 10 minutes, top side up for tube cake and upside down
for bundt cake. Using a skewer or long bamboo pick, make holes
all over top and sides of hot cake. Drizzle syrup very slowly
over cake, being careful that too much does not run into any
cracks on top of cake. Bring foil up around cake and wrap
securely. Cake may be served when completely cool, or store
in an airtight container overnight. Cake may be wrapped securely
in foil and stored in the refrigerator for several weeks or in
a freezer for up to six months. Serve with whipped cream.
Yield: 1 10-inch tube cake

SOME IRISH TRIVIA: WHAT IS THE BLARNEY STONE?
The Blarney Stone is a stone set in the wall of the Blarney
Castle tower in the Irish village of Blarney. Kissing the
stone is supposed to bring the kisser the gift of persuasive
eloquence (blarney). Thousands of tourists a year still
visit the castle.
The origins of the Blarney Stone's magical properties aren't
clear, but one legend says that an old woman cast a spell on
the stone to reward a king who had saved her from drowning.
Kissing the stone while under the spell gave the king the
ability to speak sweetly and convincingly.
It's tough to reach the stone -- it's between the main castle
wall and the parapet. Kissers have to lie on their back and
bend backward (and downward), holding iron bars for support.
Can you imagine kissing something that has had people's lips
all over it for 500 years?
