Yummy! Hubby just finished the last piece today. I love the addition of rum to the icing.

so delicious, I used only 1/3 cup rum and flavor still shined through in the cake, I'm going to give this a try using Devils Food chocolate cake mix and chocolate pudding next time, what a great cake, thanks for sharing hon!...Kitten :)

Delicious flavor - great for gatherings and easy to make! It does make a nice tall bundt cake - mine just doesn't look it because it used a decorative bundt cake pan and I can never get the whoel thing out intact - just me! So I cut the bottom (top) decorative part off to make a flat bottom - and only put nuts on half as not all my family can eat them or likes them. Very yummy recipe - thanks for posting Annacia!!
