Red Wine In Chocolate Cake????? Help!!!!!!!
Decorating By yummymummycakes Updated 17 May 2007 , 3:22am by funfoodie2
Can anyone help with this one please .......... 
My dear x hubby has made a $100 challange (i.e bet) that I cant do a chocolate fudge cake flavored with red wine!!!! 
Normally I just use the Betty Crocker Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix.....he loves it. 
But if I substitute the oil for just red wine I am worried the cake will be to dry.............. can I just add an extra egg or is there something else I need to do?
I thought I had read something about this but I cant seem to find it. 
Please help as this is the first time I have ever been worried about losing a challange set by him!!
Thanks in advance
I've never done it, but I think I would replace the water called for in the instructions and keep the oil. Of course, I am not sure what is added to Betty Crocker mix ( I only use Duncan Hines mixes). Aside from that, I think maybe I would drizzle some of the wine onto the baked cake (like they do with simple syrup and liquers sometimes). Sorry I couldn't help more definitively 
Good Luck 
Cheat and use a dessert wine! Sweet and some are almost syrupy.
