Irish Eyes Godiva Cake
"Perfect for St. Patrick's day or even Christmas time. Light green color sets the mood for your holiday party. This cake is incredibly moist too. I created this cake for an Irish dinner party and I didn't want to use the usual Bailey's Irish Cream for the dessert."

Very nice Bundt cake! I had to sub regular Godiva liqueur for the white chocolate version because that's what I had. I also left out the nut topping -- I had some chopped pecans set aside for this, but I forgot to put them in the pan first and didn't think it made sense to add them to what would be the bottom of the cake. I think the glaze would've been a bit more attractive with the white chocolate liqueur, but that was my own fault for not having the right liqueur. The flavor was lovely, though. Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Spring 2012 -
Excellent!

I love to cook, no doubt about it. All of my family gatherings inspire lots of new menus and recipes. I love all kinds of foods from different countries and I try to mimic as many as I can. I am lucky to have such a brave family that eats or at least tries all of my accomplishments and failures in the kitchen. Right now I am really into perfecting my pancakes and fried chicken. I've kind of gone back to the basics in the kitchen that a lot of people overlook or rely on convient frozen or boxed versions. When I'm not cooking I'm entertaining 3 children, a dog and 3 cats...and a husband too!
