Ingredients

Glaze

  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 1/8 cup water
  • ¼ cup rum

Cake

  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup dark rum
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan.

Step 2
Make cake: Sprinkle walnuts over the bottom of the prepared pan; set aside.

Step 3
Mix together cake mix, eggs, dark rum, water, oil, and vanilla pudding mix in a large bowl until well combined. Pour batter over walnuts in the pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool, then invert cake onto a serving plate. Gently prick holes into the top and sides of cake with a toothpick or skewer.

Step 5
Make glaze: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir sugar and water into melted butter; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Remove glaze from heat; stir in rum.

Step 6
Drizzle warm glaze over top and sides of cake.
