Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 F and prepare a 10-inch Bundt pan with cooking spray.

  2. Combine cake mix, rum, vegetable oil, pudding mix, and eggs in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes.

  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  4. Cool the cake in the pan for 20 minutes, then invert it onto a platter, remove the pan, and allow the cake to cool completely.

  5. For the glaze, combine sugar and water in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

  6. Add butter and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens into a syrup.

  7. Remove from heat, whisk in the rum, and let the glaze cool completely.

  8. Drizzle the cooled glaze evenly over the cooled cake before serving.
