Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-inch (10-cup) tube pan* and flour with 3 tablespoons flour.
  • Sift remaining 2½ cups flour, baking powder and salt into medium bowl. Beat butter in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add brown sugar gradually and continue beating until light and loose, about 4 to 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture alternately with 1 cup evaporated milk. Stir in rum until just mixed. Spoon batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Invert onto plate. Dust with powdered sugar prior to serving, if desired. Store in refrigerator.
  • *A 10-cup Bundt pan also can also be used; bake for 50 to 55 minutes.
