Southern Comfort Cake image

This is a recipe that is in my handwriting and on a 3x5 file card. I have no idea when I wrote this,or where it came from. Thea has pretty much the same recipe, and she said it came from her book The Cake Dr. In any event it is delish, and well worth making!

  • 6. make glaze by combining the 1/2 stick butter, 1/8 cup water, and 1/2 cup sugar in a sauce pan, bring to a boil.
  • 7. Boil 3 minutes, then remove from heat and stir in the 1/4 cup Southern Comfort.
