How to Make Libby's White Wine Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, oil, and water according to the cake mix box instructions.
  3. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, then reduce speed to low and mix for an additional 3-4 minutes until batter is smooth.
  4. Generously spray a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  5. Sprinkle chopped nuts evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sugar, and water.
  9. Bring to a boil and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in white wine until smooth.
  11. Let the glaze cool slightly.
  12. Once the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack.
  13. Pour half of the glaze over the warm cake.
  14. Let the cake cool completely before brushing the remaining glaze over the top until absorbed.
