TOFFEE RUM CAKE
I found this recipe in a 1970's Sunset cookbook. This makes a very yummy dessert that's elegant enough for a dinner party. The prep time is the time to make the syrup and chill the cake. The cooking time is the time to chill the cake after frosting.

Steps:
- Combine the 1/2 c sugar and water in a saucepan and heat until it begins to simmer; simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the sugar and water are simmering, put the cake on the serving platter and make holes 1" apart all through the cake with a wooden skewer.
- Remove the syrup made with the sugar and water from the heat and add in the rum.
- Stir well to combine and slowly pour the hot syrup over the cake.
- Chill the cake for 2 hours.
- Whip the heavy whipping cream and the 2 T sugar until stiff peaks form; stir in the vanilla extract.
- Frost the top and sides of the cooled cake.
- Coarsely chop the toffee and sprinkle on top of the cake to garnish.
- Chill from 2 - 12 hours before serving.
- Note: you may substitute brandy or 2-4 T frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed, for the rum.
