Hooray! My bf's fav cake is the Harvey Wallbanger! I made him the one from the cake mix but I found it too dense. I am making him a from scratch version tonight, because you can never have to much hooch cakes!A couple of tips from my experience:
- I always prefer the from scratch versions of any cake, but I know there are those out there who don't have the time or patience... SO if you are using the cake mix; since it's nearly impossible to find an orange flavoured cake mix, you can add 1 pkg of orange koolaid to a yellow or white cake mix and get the same orange-y flavour!
- I used a toothpick to poke some holes in the warm cake before pouring the glaze which allows in to soak into the cake. If you like it boozy like my bf, do this and then add another coat of glaze after the first one sets... you'll be breathing fire!
