For an extra layer of flavor, consider using a dark chocolate cake mix or adding a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the batter. High-quality rum makes a noticeable difference in the flavor of the cake and glaze. Opt for a good sipping rum if possible. If you don't have walnuts on hand, pecans or almonds would also work well. To prevent the cake from sticking, be sure to grease and flour the Bundt pan thoroughly. You can also use a baking spray with flour already added. Store the cooled cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
