Rum Cake
Perfect end to your Christmas dinner!
Introduction
This is my absolute favorite dessert – the perfect end to your Christmas dinner! It’s decadent, moist, flavourful and easy to whip up.
Ingredients
- 1 box of Yellow cake mix
- 1 box Instant vanilla pudding mix
- 4 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup dark rum
✖️Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 10”fluted cake pan. I use room temperature butter on a paper towel, rub it all over the inside of the pan. Put a little flour in the pan and shake it around until the sides are coated. Set aside
✖️Beat together cake mix, eggs, vanilla pudding mix, water, oil and rum. I like to use a hand mixer to make sure I get all the lumps out. Pour into cake pan
✖️Bake for 1 hour. Let the cake cool, then invert it onto plate/cake stand. Poke a few holes along the top with a knife, this will help the glaze soak through
Glaze
✖️Melt 1/2 cup butter on med heat. Add to that 1 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup water. Whisking frequently. Allow this to come to a boil for 5 mins. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup rum
Pour all over cake. Top with powdered sugar! This cake is so moist and so delicious. Serve alongside vanilla ice cream or with a big dollop of whipping cream!
