For the holidays, I wanted to surprise my father and make one of his favorite desserts, Italian rum cake. I looked for an easy recipe online, and stumbled upon multiple ones that use a box cake mix as the base. My Italian grandmother would be shocked, I know, but let's face it - I'm all about easy when it comes to baking...At Home. To make it even extra festive, I used spiced rum instead of regular dark rum for the glaze to create this Italian Spiced Rum Cake. Plus, that is Keith's favorite kind of rum, so was what we had in the house already. The only uneasy thing about this recipe is that it needs to be made well in advance and then left to sit to allow for better flavoring.
