Mix top ingredients together. Pour into a greased and floured (I use bakers joy) bundt pan. Bake at 325º for 65 minutes. While baking mix the other ingredients in a sauce pan to a slow boil and then simmer.

Take hot cake out of the oven and pour sauce over the cake and allow it to soak in. Let cake sit for 10 minutes before turning it over onto a cake pan.
