Sorry, I don't have a recipe for you. I know you'll find one and it'll be perfect, though.

I've come across several that sound tasty so if I find one I'll like, I'll let you know too. Maybe you want to give your baking hand a try?

Crazily enough, I own a cookbook of chocolate cake recipes.

Rick's Chocolate Rum Bundt Cake
Serves: 16
Preparation Time: 8 minutes
Baking time: 43-47 minutes
Assembly time: 5 minutes

Vegetable oil spray for misting the pan
Flour for dusting the pan
1 package (18.25 ounces) plain yellow cake mix
1 package (3.9 ounces) chocolate instant pudding mix
1 cup sour cream
½ cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup light rum
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Any kind of chocolate glaze (I have Rick's specific recipe if you want)

Do you need the directions? I've made the cake before and there's nothing fancy--regular ol' cake--but I can type them out if you want. Let me know. :)

JESS!! OMG, I love you!

I'd love the glaze recipe if you wouldn't mind typing that up either as I've never made a glaze before.

But as for the cake, as long as it's just the regular cake type recipe, I think I'll be ok.

Thank you thank you! This sounds yummy!

Absolutely! Anytime. :) I love sharing recipes.

Rich chocolate glaze
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
3 tablespoons milk

1. Place the chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir and cook until both of them melt and the mixture is smooth, 3-4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, and whisk the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth.

2. Pour over cake!
