RUM AND COKE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°.

• Beat the eggs with an electric mixer; gradually add the softened butter and the sugar and beat until creamy.
• Beat in the Coca-Cola, rum, vanilla, and milk (note--use only fresh, bubbly Coke, not flat Coke, as called for in some recipes; the bubbles actually make a honeycomb effect in the finished cake).

• Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan; bake 45-60 minutes, or until the cake tests done.
• Let the cake cook slightly; use a knife to work around the sides and center of the cake, and then invert the cake on a serving platter.
• The sauce: while the cake is baking, make the sauce--bring the Coca-Cola, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan; continue cooking at med-high heat, stirring, until the syrup thickens.
• Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the butter and the rum.
• Serve the cake warm, spooning plenty of sauce over each individual serving.
• *Can double the sauce, if you want.
