Rum Cake

I posted this because my boss makes me want to drink ... alot. The rum can be substituted with jack daniels, if you want an alcoholic adventure (believe me, if you are a jack fan, it is tasty). Hope you girls enjoy! ( maybe it can help you deal with the in-laws this holiday weekend)

Ingredients
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 cup buttermilk or sour milk
2 tsps. rum extract
3 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
Butter Sauce:
1 cup confectionary sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup rum
1 tsp. rum extract

Directions
Cream butter with mixer then gradually add sugar and mix well. Blend in eggs one at a time. Combine buttermilk and rum extract. Sift dry ingredients together. Add dry ingredients and buttermilk to butter mixture alternately, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Grease and flour Bundt pan and cook at 350°F for 60-65 minutes. When done, insert a narrow spatula or knife around edges of pan to loosen. Poke long toothpicks into cake all over top. Heat ingredients to butter sauce until all blended. Slowly drizzle hot butter sauce over cake allowing time for it to be absorbed. Cool completely in pan before removing. Sprinkle with confectionary sugar.
