RAWHIDE'S WHISKEY CAKE

For several years, our neighbor gave us a moist, whiskey-flavored cake. I've tweaked the recipe, and now my friends want this cake instead of platters of homemade cookies. Fair warning: This cake takes three days to make, but it is very easy to prepare. -Cindy Worth, Lapwai, Idaho
