RUM CAKE 
1 box yellow butter cake mix (Duncan Hines)
1 sm. pkg. instant vanilla pudding
1/2 c. white rum
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. oil
1/2 c. chopped nuts
4 eggs

Mix all ingredients except nuts and pour into greased and floured Bundt pan. Sprinkle nuts on top and bake at 325 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes.

GLAZE:

1 1/2 stick butter (butter is too rich)
1 1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. rum
1/4 c. water

Blend and cook, stirring together for 5 minutes. Pour over cake when done.

Invert cooked cake onto serving plate. Puncture rounded top with fork or cut small "V" groove around entire cake so that glaze soaks into cake. Gently pour glaze over cake or into groove, allowing it to soak in.
