ANOTHER RUM CAKE

I thought I'd rework the Chocolate Rum cake that my friend Nance made for our "Christmas name picking" at the begining of the month. This time I used yellow cake mix with vanilla pudding and nuts with butterscotch chips. It is really good!

Rum Cake

Oil and flour a bunt pan

Sprinkle nuts and chips over the bottom of the pan

1/2 C walnuts or pecans

1/2 C butterscotch chips

Mix all the ingredients until smooth:

box yellow cake mix

1 small box vanilla instant pudding

3 eggs

1/2 C oil

1 C water

Bake 1 hour (use a cake tester to be sure cake is fully cooked)

Glaze:

1C butter

1C sugar

3/8 C rum

1/8C water

Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan simmer 2-3 min.

Pour hot glaze over cake as soon as you take it out of the oven. It seems like a lot of glaze but it will all soak in. Allow cake to cool for 20-30 min before turning out onto a plate.

This is a great cake!!
