This is a moist delicious cake. I found the recipe in a cookbook I got at the library and copied it but I can't remember which cookbook it came from. It sells great at bake sales for as much as $10.00.

This recipe is missing some important ingredients. I had to add some flour and baking powder to make it work.

This was my first time making a rum cake, and it was a disaster. The cake was dry and crumbly.
