This cake earned rave reviews at the end of our St Patty's Day 2011 meal! I thought it was a tad too sweet (4 stars), but I was in the minority (1 vs 6) - therefore, give it majority rating of 5 stars. I used all of the glaze, poking lots of holes, and applying slowly as suggested by another reader. It made a lovely presentation, and perfectly paired with Irish coffees!

What a wonderful way to end our St Patty's meal! I made the recipe into mini bundts so everyone could have their own. It was very easy to make and I will be making it for more than just this holiday. Thanks so much for posting!!

Delicious cake! I used a 13 X 9 pan and baked at 325 degrees for 55 minutes. I poked many holes in the top with a fork and poured the glaze on very slowly with breaks. If you pour it on all at once, your pan may overflow. What worked for me was pouring some on, letting that soak in, then pouring some more on. I used all the glaze. The taste and texture of this cake were both fantastic. I will definitely make again.

Mmmm Good. I used an angel food cake pan, followed the cake directions exactly and baked for 50 minutes. Used 3/4 stick of butter, 3/4 cup sugar and no irish cream for the glaze. Thinking next time I would cook the glaze a little longer and on low heat to really melt the sugar. The cake was very moist and delicious. Definately serves more than 8.

This cake is always a hit. It makes two 8x4 loaf pans so you can freeze one. The entire glaze makes it too sweet, so I make half and use 1/3 cup brown sugar instead of white sugar. People always ask for the recipe.

This miracle cake took all my woes away. The first bite melted my bad mood and put a huge smile on my face. It is simply heavenly and I will most definitely be making it again and again.

I make this cake every year for a dessert auction at my church, and it routinely sells for $500 or more. I'm lazy about the glaze. Once I poke holes in the cake I pour almost all of the glaze into my Bundt pan, put the cake back in and let it sit for a while until the glaze is absorbed. The little bit I don't pour into the pan gets spooned onto the bottom of the cake. This cake will make you look like a super star.

This was an awesome cake. Made it for St Pat's Day for friends and family who raved. Like others who posted, I did not use all of the glaze, but used a pastry brush after poking holes in cake and adding glaze in layers to use up as much as possible without drowning the cake! It was delectible and we will have again and again! Thanks!

I made this cake 3 times last week, it was a total hit. I did modify it the last time because I ran out of vanilla pudding. I substituted chocolate pudding and added a teaspoon of instant coffee. My cook time for the cake was only 40 minutes and I only cooked the icing for about 3 1/2 minutes. Everyone loved it!

This was so easy and the best! I also had a lot of the glaze left over - but that was the best part. We served the cake with vanilla ice cream and drizzled the glaze over the ice cream. Delicious and beautiful too!

Oh my... I cannot begin to describe the goodness that is this cake! I loved every bite! I didn't use pecans because they freak me out, and I only used about half the glaze (saved the rest for another cake!) and it was phenomenal. Delicious.

Another Sunday dinner, another delicious dessert! My mom recently discovered she is allergic to chocolate so I've been looking for something equally tempting - this is it! I screwed up the glaze and added everything in at once, so I added more Bailey's at the end. Everyone loved it! Thanks for sharing!

YUM. I thought I had Irish cream in the house, but turned out to have amaretto instead. So I used that instead, and rather than pecans I used honey glazed almonds. This was SO good, and very impressive looking.

If using a cake mix that includes pudding, do not add the packet of pudding. Also, use 3 eggs (instead of 4) and 1/3 cup vegetable oil (instead of 1/2 cup).

A waste of good Bailey's Irish Cream...I prepared this cake for my sister-in-law's 50th birthday party (Greek themed toga party so I had to bring a bundt cake. She is Greek and her husband is Irish). I read the many favorable reviews here and had high expectations. The only things that occur to me to explain why the cake was so disappointing: (1)I did use a pudding yellow cake mix as well as the pudding mix. If anything I would think this would make the cake more moist but it wasn't moist and (2) I don't use cake mixes, and the artificial taste of the mix was noticeable. The glaze was delicious, though.

This turned out very good, I used irish cream with a touch of carmel in it and it was a great flavor...

This turned out really moist and everyone at work loved it. I left out the irish cream in the glaze--which i think was a good idea. That would have been overwhelming. Excellent texture though.
