Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients, especially the chocolate, butter, and rum, as they will greatly impact the cake's flavor and texture.
Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting the recipe, as this will help them mix together more easily and create a smooth batter.
Do not overmix the batter, as this can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven, and do not open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the cake to fall.
Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it, as this will help the frosting set properly.
