In a bowl of a stand mixer, mix boxed cake, pudding, eggs, oil, water and rum on medium to high speed for 2 minutes.

Step 3

Sprinkle chocolate chips and walnuts in bottom of Bundt pan. Then pour cake batter over the top of the chocolate chips and walnuts.

Step 6

In a small saucepan, melt butter, sugar, water and cocoa. Bring to a boil and add dark rum. Cook on medium for 2 minutes, stirring.

Step 7

Pour 1/2 of hot glaze over hot cake while still in pan (as mentioned above).
