The first post has to be a positive one-Rum Cake

Recently I have enjoyed going through my tried and true church cookbooks.  These people wouldn't want their name associated with a bad recipe... you know they are good. Most are simple, you have to love that.  I found this in the Most Holy Trinity Parish Cookbook circa 1991.
Rum Cake
Cake
1/2 c. pecans, chopped
1 pkg vanilla instant pudding
1/2 cup rum
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. cooking oil
4 eggs
1pkg Duncan Hines golden butter cake mix

Glaze

1c. sugar

1/4 c. water

1 stick butter

1/4 c. rum

Grease bundt pan and put nuts in bottom.  In a mixing bowl, combine cake mix and dry pudding mix.  Add rum, water, oil, and eggs.  Mix 2 minutes.  Pour batter in pan.  Bake at 325 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

Combine all glaze ingredients in a saucepan.  Boil for 2-3 minutes.

When cake is done, pour glaze over cake while it is still in the pan.  Cool 30 minutes and then remove from pan.

This is a yummy moist cake.  Here is a little back story.  After the cake was in the oven for at least 20 minutes, I noticed I never added the pudding.  After some debate in my brain, I decided to stir in the pudding.  Phew, you couldn't tell.
