Train Bundt Cake Pan
My gift during the Christmas season are rum cakes to family, friends, and co-workers, and now to you. I have no secrets, so here is the recipe:
Ingredients: 1 box of yellow cake mix, 1 box of vanilla jello pudding, 1/2 stick of butter, rum (preferably Meyer's Dark Rum), Pam, 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar), 4 eggs, 1/3 cup corn oil, 1/3 cup water, and candy (optional.)
Equipment needed: Mixing bowl, egg beater, bundt pan, sauce pan or small pot
Instructions: Empty the box of yellow cake mix and the box of vanilla jello pudding in a mixing bowl, add in the four large eggs, 1/3 cup of water, 1/3 cup of rum, and 1/3 cup corn oil. Beat with the egg beater until the batter turns to a thick consistency with no lumps. Spray the pan with Pam on non-stick oil spray. Pour the batter into the bundt pan and set into oven and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. If using a shallow pan, then bake for 35 minutes.
For the glaze, pour 1/2 cup of rum into a sauce pan and heat until it bubbles, lower the heat and throw in 1/2 stick of butter (cubed). As the butter melts, add in confectioner's sugar slowly and stir until it is all melted.
Let the bundt cake cool too the touch and poke holes at the top of the cake with a fork. The top of the cake will eventually be the bottom once it is emptied out of the pan. Turn the pan over and place the cake on a flat dish and drizzle the glaze over the entire cake. Of course you can adjust the rum in the glaze to your taste! Decorate with candy if you prefer. Merry Christmas!
