Ingredients:  
Cake:
1 pkg. butter recipe golden cake mix
1 small pkg. instant vanilla pudding mix
4 eggs

1/2 cup rum
1/2 cup water
Chopped pecans, to taste

3 Tbsp. water

Directions:
Directions:
Put all ingredients except pecans into mixer and mix thoroughly. Butter a Bundt pan well and sprinkle desired amount of pecans in the bottom. Pour batter in and bake at 350º about 50 minutes until cake tests done.

Glaze:
(Make glaze as soon as you put the cake in since it has to be poured on cake as it comes from oven.)
Bring to a boil, stirring to avoid scorching. Let it boil until it is thick and syrupy. Take off heat and add 1-oz. rum (note - use care; it really bubbles up when you add the rum). Pour on cake as it comes from oven. Take a skewer or ice pick and gently puncture the cake all over the bottom after glaze is on, so that it is absorbed into the cake as well as running down the sides. Cool. Gently run spatula around edges to loosen. Place plate over pan and invert. Tap gently to release if necessary.
