I have been told for years that I couldn't share this recipe, because it is a "family" recipe! while searching the internet one evening, my husband calls me to the computer. "Isn't this your rum cake recipe?" I was surprised to see our family recipe there for all to see. I do have a different technique that use when completing my own cake, and now I'm sharing it with you.

How to Make Christmas Rum Cake

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F
Grease and flour Bundt pan.
Crumble nuts in bottom.
Put cake mix and pudding mix in a large bowl.
In a smaller bowl put all other ingredients and beat thoroughly.
Add this mixture to dry mixture and beat 3 minutes.
Bake for 45 - 50 minutes.
5 minutes before cake is ready to be removed from the oven, prepare glaze.
Put all ingredients in small pan and boil 2-3 minutes.
Pour hot over cake (freshly removed from the oven)
Allow to cool for 30 minutes and turn over onto serving plate. Allowing cake to sit longer then 30 minutes will cause it to stick to the pan.
