    • 1 cup chopped walnuts

  • dry mix

    • 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
    • 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

  • eggs

    • 🥚 4 large eggs

  • liquids

    • 1 cup dark rum, divided
    • 💧 ¾ cup water, divided
    • ½ cup vegetable oil

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

2

Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan. Sprinkle chopped walnuts evenly over the bottom of the pan.

3

Combine cake mix and pudding mix in a large bowl. Mix in eggs, 1/2 cup rum, 1/2 cup water, and oil until well-blended. Pour batter over chopped nuts in the pan.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean, about 1 hour.

5

Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine sugar, butter, and remaining 1/4 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until glaze thickens and slightly darkens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in remaining 1/2 cup rum.

6

Let baked cake sit in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.

7

Brush glaze over top and sides. Allow cake to absorb glaze and repeat until all glaze is used.

8

Serve and enjoy!
