Make the cake:

Stir cake mix and pudding mix together in a large bowl

Add in the remaining cake ingredients

Beat on low speed with an electric mixer until blended (follow the instructions on the cake mix box)

Scrape the sides of the bowl, then beat on medium speed for 4 minutes

Pour batter into the prepared pan

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes

Transfer to a wire rack (do not remove the cake from the pan yet)


Make the glaze:

Cook all of the glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat for 2 minutes

Pour over the still warm cake

Allow the cake to cool completely, the glaze will soak into the cake

Invert your cake to a lovely cake plate

I think the next time I make this cake, I'll make a little more of the glaze to really soak the cake well.
