Instructions

Cake Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Spray Bundt pan thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray, including around the ring in the middle of the pan. Sprinkle all but 2 tbsp. of pecans on the bottom of the Bundt pan (save the rest for the cake batter) making sure they are evenly distributed.
  2. Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl (cake mix, nutmeg, cinnamon, remaining 2 tbsp. pecans)
  3. In a separate mixing bowl add the wet ingredients (eggs, pumpkin, vegetable oil, water, 1/2 cup rum, vanilla extract) and stir until fully combined, then add to the dry ingredients and stir. Pour the cake batter into the greased Bundt pan and bake for 33-36 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Let cake cool for about 10 minutes. If you have one, insert a silicone spatula around the edges of the cake to encourage a smooth release., then place a serving plate over the cake and carefully flip the plate over. I like to let the cake pan sit there for a minute or so, so it can naturally release, then remove the Bundt pan.
  5. With a toothpick or fork, poke holes all over the top and sides of the cake, then spoon the rum glaze slowly over the top & sides of the cake until you use it all. It's key to spoon the rum glaze slowly, so the cake absorbs it and it doesn't just run down the side of the cake to the plate. Slice & enjoy!

Rum Glaze Instructions

  1. When the cake has about 15 minutes left to bake, start the rum glaze by adding the sugar, water, and butter to a sauce pan and bring to a boil. When it starts to boil, reduce the heat to low/medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, then turn off the heat and add the rum. Stir and set aside.
