Rum Cake

Back when Lydia was young and dumb, she decided that “Hot Buttered Rum” sounded really good. So, she and Lucas bought a big bottle of rum…”Hot Buttered Rum” is awful!! Since they then had a large bottle of rum they had no idea what to do with, Roxie was kind enough to give them this recipe. It is very good!
