Tunnel of Fudge Cake I

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 (7.25 ounce) packages chocolate fudge frosting mix
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chopped walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons boiling water

Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan. Measure 3/4 cup of the frosting mix for the chocolate glaze. Set aside.

2 In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the remaining frosting mix and flour, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the nuts.

3 Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes. The top of the cake will form a brownie like crust before it is done. Allow to cool for 60 minutes in the pan, then cool completely on a wire rack before glazing.

4 To make the chocolate glaze: Mix together reserved 3/4 cup frosting mix and 2 tablespoons boiling water, stirring until smooth. Thin with additional boiling water if necessary to reach desired consistency. Spoon glaze over the cooled cake.
