Mix milk, orange juice, oil, eggs, orange zest, rum, and set aside.
In separate bowl sift flour, salt and baking powder. Mix in sugar
and pudding mix - make a well in center and add milk and orange juice
mixture and mix well. (I mixed on medium speed for about 1 and a
half minutes.)
Sprinkle chopped pecans in a greased and floured Bundt pan and pour
cake mixture on top.
Bake for 1 hour at 325 (check at 50 mins). Cool (for 10 mins in pan).
Invert on plate, (let cool more) prick then spread glaze evenly over
top. Do this in stages so that the cake has time to absorb all the glaze.
Glaze:
Melt butter in saucepan.
Once butter is melted add sugar.
Bring to boil and stir constantly for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and add rum.
Best rum is Bermuda Black Seal rum, but Meyers Dark Rum can be used
or for a lighter flavor, you can use a clear Bacardi rum.
