Rum Cake



From the kitchen of Stephanie Knewasser



_______________________________________


I made this for a Family Fun Night & it received rave reviews. The cake has rum in the batter and in the glaze. It's very moist.



Cake

Mix:

1 package yellow cake mix

1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

4 eggs

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup dark rum

Pour into a greased & floured bundt pan.


Bake @ 325, 60 minutes or until tests done with a toothpick.

While cake is baking, make glaze below.

Let cake set 10 minutes, remove to a plate.

Pour some glaze into the bundt pan.

Put the cake back in the pan to absorb the rum glaze.

Poke the exposed bottom of the cake with a skewer.

Slowly pour the rest of glaze onto cake, giving it time to absorb.


Glaze

In a pan over medium heat, bring to a boil:

1/2 cup butter

1/4 cup water

1 cup sugar

Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat.

Add:

1/2 cup dark rum





Comments



You can add 1 c chopped walnuts to the batter. I use HALF the glaze. -Kate
