This has been in my mom’s recipe box for as long as I can remember. The cream sherry is what makes this cake so special – it can be made without, but it just would not taste the same to me. We usually baked it just as a bundt cake with confectioners sifted on top, but I recently baked them as cupcakes, and they domed beautifully!
I've never heard of Cream Sherry. Any particular brand that you use? Do you purchase it at the liquor store? Thanks.
I also never heard of cream sherry. Please explain, Would love to try recipe but need clarification. Thank you
Is the vanilla pudding the instant kind? Thanks!
Re: the Cream Sherry - it is a sweet, dessert wine which would be found in the liqour aisle. The brand I have on hand now is Sheffield Cellars by Ernest & Julio Gallo, but growing up my mom always used Harvey Bristols Cream Sherry.
Re: the pudding - use the instant kind (small box), but only if the cake mix does not already contain pudding in it. If the cake mix does contain pudding, or is a Moist variety, then do not use the pudding mix. Sorry - meant to clarify that in the original post.
What is cream sherry? Thanking you in advance.
Cream sherry is a very dark, sweet dessert wine. The one brand I find the most in the US is Harveys Bristol Cream Sherry; it will be located in the wine aisle.
