BOX CAKE INGREDIENTS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, grease the bundt pan.
• Using a stand mixer fitted with a wire whisk attachment, cream the bowl’s butter and sugar at medium-high speed until combined and fluffy.
• At medium speed, gradually add the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and lemon extract. Add in the milk and sour cream.
• Add the cake mix and flour and beat until it is well incorporated. Pour the batter into the bundt pan.
• Put the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 55 minutes. Take the pan out of the conventional oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes; invert pan to a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10" tube or 12" Bundt pan. Sprinkle nuts over bottom of pan. In large mixing bowl combine cake mix, eggs, 1/2 cup cold water, oil, and 1/2 cup rum. Mix well. Pour into prepared pan over nuts. Bake about 55 minutes until golden brown and the middle tests done with wooden toothpick. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes and prepare glaze while it's cooling (recipe below.) After cake has cooled slightly invert it onto dinner plate or serving dish (it needs to be slightly larger than cake and with a rim to hold in syrup glaze as it's poured.) Then prick caketop all over with toothpick. Spoon or drizzle glaze evenly over top and sides (I use a turkey baster afterwards to reach all surfaces and return pooled glaze to coat cake all over - see Photo 2.) At first the hot syrup will pool in middle and at bottom edges but as it cools the syrup gets thicker and if you keep spooning or basting it back up to top, eventually all the syrup will absorb into cake. GLAZE: Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat; add 1/4 cup water, and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat as needed to boil gently for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in rum. Optionally decorate border with sugar frosting or whipped cream.
