Chocolate Rum Cake ~

Ever since I saw Pioneer Woman's blog post on her mother in law's Christmas rum cake, I was reminded that way back in the 70's it came from a well know rum bottle label.   And there was a chocolate version too.  So when I needed a cake to make for a co-worker's birthday I decided to make this one. I  have been wanting to try the chocolate version, because this particular co-worker loves chocolate.  The recipe is so easy to make and the extra bonus is it's  a one pan dessert.  After you drizzle some the glaze to the cake while it's still inverted, it slides right onto your cake platter when you tip it over too!  Gotta love the ease of this recipe and the flavor is rather boozy, so you gotta love that if you want to love this cake.

If you want to have an over the top cake to impress, just add a little dollop of real whipped cream.  Yum!

Here's the link to the recipe.
