BLACKBERRY WINE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Grease and flour a Bundt pan; sprinkle the nuts in the bottom of the pan.
• In a large bowl, combine the cake mix and gelatin.
• Add the eggs, oil and wine.
• At low speed, beat just until moistened.
• Increase the speed to medium and beat for 2 more minutes; scrape the bowl frequently.
• Pour in the Bundt pan and bake for 45-50 minutes.
• Glaze: Bring the 1 c powdered sugar, wine and butter to a boil; the glaze will be fairly thin.
• While the cake is still warm and in the Bundt pan, pour half of the glaze on the cake.
• Let the cake sit for 30 minutes to absorb the glaze.
• Turn the cake out of the pan and completely cool.
• Thicken the remaining half of the glaze with additional powdered sugar and pour over the cake.
• (NOTE: I tried to put in just additional powdered sugar to thicken the glaze, but it wouldn't accept it without an amount. I'm guessing on the additional amount that I actually used. I think it was about an additional cup of powdered sugar to thicken the glaze to the consistency that I wanted. Of course, you can use the amount necessary to thicken to the consistency that you like).

• 2. Glaze: Bring 1 cup powdered sugar, wine and butter to a boil; the glaze will be really thin. While the cake is still warm and in the Bundt pan, poke holes in the top with a large fork at about 1" intervals. Pour half of the glaze on the cake. Let the cake sit for 30 minutes to absorb the glaze. Turn the cake out of the pan and completely cool. Thicken the remaining half of the glaze with additional powdered sugar (approx. 1 cup, depending on how thick you want it) and drizzle over the cake. NOTE: The chopped nuts are optional, but they really do add to the flavor of the cake.
