A former neighbor of mine brought this cake over as a holiday gift one year and graciously shared the recipe. She said this is the recipe she makes every year for the holidays. Christine said this freezes well. Ingredients:
1 cup pecans, chopped |
1 (18 1/2 ounce) package yellow cake mix |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package french vanilla instant pudding |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup crisco cooking oil |
1/2 cup dry light rum |
4 large eggs |
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick) |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 cup water |
2 ounces dry light rum |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle nuts on the bottom of a greased Bundt pan. 2. Mix together cake mix, pudding mix, water, oil, and rum. 3. Beat in eggs one at a time. 4. Pour batter into pan and bake 1 hour at 325 F (preheated). 5. Let cool. 6. For the sauce, boil butter, sugar, water,and rum together in a saucepan. 7. Pour over the cake while still in the pan. 8. This will soak into the cake. 9. Let cake cool completely before removing from pan. |
