Mom always made this rum cake around the holidays and certainly the most asked-for cake among adult guests.
This rum cake is a moist super tasty cake drenched in a simple sugar buttery rum glaze.
The longer it sits the stronger in rum and the better the flavors meld together however it's doubtful it will last long enough.
Mom used a dark rum most of the time it was a Bacardi brand back in the 1970s however through the years we also have dabbled in spiced rum and even other liqueurs the cake is very versatile.
The cake freezes well and can be made ahead of time, perfect for taking to an invited dinner party or hosting any holiday adult party.
I love doctored cake mixes like this one and it can be dressed to the nines to look like it's homemade although we know it starts with a mix.
The recipe is super easy to make in any bundt pan fancy or plain, it will come out perfect.
We have even made a chocolate version, as you can substitute some of the ingredients below and make it a whole different recipe.
If you're not a rum fan, you can also substitute another liqueur like bourbon, or for a nonalcohol use a rum-flavored coffee syrup.
We love making easy cakes with a cake mix and fooling everyone and this one tastes like a scratch cake.
I have made delicious Sour Cream Coffee Cupcakes using a cake mix, cookies, and even a Scrumptious Banana Cake Mix Cake that all taste like they were from scratch!
