Tequila Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Spray bottom of 8x4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In large bowl, combine all cake ingredients. Beat with electric mixer on low speed until mixed. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Pour into pan.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes; remove to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 50 minutes. Trim browned edges from sides and bottom of cake.
• In food processor with metal blade, crumble half of cake. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses until cake is fine crumbs. Place in large bowl; repeat with remaining cake.
• In small bowl, combine all filling ingredients; beat on low speed until mixed. Beat on medium speed until creamy. Add to cake crumbs and mix until all crumbs are moistened and mixture holds together. Roll into 18 (1 1/2-inch) balls onto waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Freeze 30 minutes.

(Reheat candy in microwave or add vegetable oil if too thick to coat.) Poke opposite end of stick into styrofoam block. Let stand until set.
