Great winter-time cake. Warms you through and through! Feel free to use a little less water and make up for it with some extra whiskey.

I'm not a big fan of whiskey, but this cake was surprisingly good. The whiskey flavor is subtle and not overpowering, and it really complements the other flavors in the cake. I would definitely recommend this cake to anyone, even if you're not a fan
