I've made this rum cake for years - and let me tell ya!! It's pretty good - you will want to share this with friends during the holidays:

Rum Cake
Saundra Carriker

1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

1 - 18 1/2 oz yellow cake mix

1 - 3 3/4 oz Jelllo vanilla instant pudding

4 eggs

1/2 cup cold water

1/2 cup Wesson oil

1/2 cup dark rum

Grease & flour a bundt pan, then sprinkle nuts in bottom; mix the next 6 ingredients, pour over the nuts and Bake at 325 for 1 hour.

Glaze:

1/4 pound of butter

1/4 cup water

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup rum

Melt butter, stir in water, sugar and boil 5 minutes - add rum and pour carefully over cake so that it soaks it all up.

Happy Holidays!

I'm married to the sweetest, kindest most wonderful man I've ever known. I have 2 sons and 1 daughter-in-law and 2 dogs. I work in television and love my job!!! During my life, the kitchen has been the center of everything going on in the house! It's a place where I can enjoy putting together a meal for my family, baking Christmas goodies that I want to share with family and friends and THE place for conversation, no matter who you're talking to! It's the comfort zone of most households!!
