--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1 1/2  cups          Water
     1/2  cup           Jack Daniels
   1      tablespoon    Instant coffee
   1 1/4  cups          Unsalted butter
   1      cup           Unsweetened cocoa powder
   2      cups          Sugar
   2                    Eggs
   2      cups          Flour
   2      teaspoons     Baking powder
     1/8  teaspoon      Salt
   1      cup           Pecans -- chopped
   2      tablespoons   Jack Daniels

In a VERY LARGE saucepan, heat & stir water, whiskey, coffee,
 butter and cocoa until butter melts. Remove from heat and beat in sugar.
 Cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs, blending thoroughly.

 In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt,
 using a whisk to blend completely.
 Beat into the chocolate mixture until incorporated. Stir in pecans. 
Turn the batter into a greased & floured 9" tube pan.
 Smooth the top of the batter with a spatula. 

Bake the cake on the middle level of a preheated oven (325~) for 60-75 minutes
 until a cake tester or skewer comes out clean.
 IMMEDIATELY sprinkle with the remaining 2 tbsp whiskey, 
or wrap in a whiskey-soaked cheese cloth after it has been cooled on a rack
 and removed from the pan.

 Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
