Moms Famous Rum Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-inch Bundt cake pan, scatter the nuts evenly into the bottom of the pan, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water, oil and rum. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the thickest part of the cake comes out with just a few crumbs attached.
• While the cake bakes, make the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, rum and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
• When the cake is done, remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Using a skewer or a fork, poke holes all over the top and sides of the cake, then brush the entire cake with the glaze, repeating until all the glaze is gone. Serve warm or at room temperature. Cake keeps (and improves, some say), wrapped and refrigerated, up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube or Bundt pan. Sprinkle nuts over the bottom of the pan.
• Mix together the cake mix, 1/2 cup dark rum, eggs, 1/2 cup water, oil, and vanilla pudding mix. Pour batter over the nuts in the pan.
• Bake for 1 hour. Cool, and invert cake on a serving plate. Prick the top of the cake.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325.
• 2. Spray a bundt pan well with nonstick spray for baking. Sprinkle the chopped nuts in the bottom of the pan.
• 3. Mix the cake mix, pudding mix, oil, water, eggs, vanilla extract and rum until well mixed about 2 minutes.
• 4. Pour over the pecans in the bundt pan. Bake at 325 for 40-60 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for about 30 minutes before removing from pan.
• 5. For the glaze melt butter in a saucepan combine with confectioners sugar and rum or rum extract.
• 6. Mix until smooth adding 1/2 tablespoon milk at a time until it's thin enough to pour over cake but not to thin.
• 7. You will probably need more of the milk if you use the rum extract instead of the actual rum since you use less.
• 8. Pour the glaze over the cake letting it run down and over the sides. If your glaze is thick enough your glaze won't run a whole lot. Dot the top and down the sides a little with the pecan halves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour one 10 inch tube pan.

• To Make Glaze: During the last 15 to 20 minutes of baking time, combine butter or margarine, water and sugar in a sauce pan and bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and boil rapidly until it's very thick and syrupy stirring very frequently. The syrup must be reduced quite a bit and very thick otherwise it will make the cake mushy. Remove from heat and add rum. While cake is still hot, poke holes all over top of cake with a toothpick and spoon glaze over top of cake. Allow cake to sit at room temperature for one day then refrigerate.
