I got this recipe a long time ago, and every now and then when I need to make a dessert, I resurrect it. It is great to bring to a holiday party. It is delicious. Moist and very rummy. If you are over a certain age, I'll bet you've had it.
1 package yellow cake mix.
1 package vanilla instant pudding mix.
(may substitute cake mix with pudding in it)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup wat4er
1/2 cup dark rum
4 eggs
Mix ingredients well at medium speed for two minutes. Bake one hour in greased and floured pan at 350 degrees.
Icing
1 1/2 sticks butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. water
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. rum
Boil for two minutes, and then pour over cake immediately while still in pan, after removing from oven. Wait ten to fifteen minutes and invert onto a plate.
