Steps:
- 1. mix sugar and flour in a large bowl
- 2. heat the butter, cocoa powder and water over low heat until well mixed, pour over dry ingredients
- 3. Mix extra well
- 4. add next five (5) ingredients mixing well after each item-this batter gets stiff and then loosens up a little-blew up a mixer making 6 of these for my nieces wedding.
- 5. pour into a greased an floured pan-I use 11 x 13 inch glass pan-and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
- 6. While the cake is baking melt the butter, cocoa powder, buttermilk and vanilla in a pan on the stove-use the one you used originally why clean more than one pan?
- 7. Mix in powdered sugar until thick.
- 8. Once cake is done poke it with a knife or fork ALL OVER-mom said if you don't get enough holes the cake is no good-While cake and frosting are still hot pour frosting over cake.
- 9. Leave cake and all in the pan until halfway cool-that is usually when I give in because the kids have whined so much-cut and serve. I like it warm with ice cream on it.

- 2. Spray a bundt pan well with nonstick spray for baking. Sprinkle the chopped nuts in the bottom of the pan.
- 3. Mix the cake mix, pudding mix, oil, water, eggs, vanilla extract and rum until well mixed about 2 minutes.
- 4. Pour over the pecans in the bundt pan. Bake at 325 for 40-60 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for about 30 minutes before removing from pan.
- 5. For the glaze melt butter in a saucepan combine with confectioners sugar and rum or rum extract.
- 6. Mix until smooth adding 1/2 tablespoon milk at a time until it's thin enough to pour over cake but not to thin.
- 7. You will probably need more of the milk if you use the rum extract instead of the actual rum since you use less.
- 8. Pour the glaze over the cake letting it run down and over the sides. If your glaze is thick enough your glaze won't run a whole lot. Dot the top and down the sides a little with the pecan halves.

Steps:
- Cream sugar and oil; add eggs, vanilla, and sour milk Add dry ingredients stir in zucchini . Pour in 9x13 greased pan Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake at 325 35 to 45 minutes
Tips:
- Use quality ingredients. Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your cake. Splurge on the best butter, sugar, and flour you can find.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and tender cake. Be patient and cream the butter and sugar together for at least 2-3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
- Sift the flour before measuring it. This will help ensure that you have the correct amount of flour in your recipe. Be sure to level off the flour with a knife before measuring it.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
