Instructions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Generously grease a 10-inch tube pan and dust lightly with flour.

In a food processor or mixer, blend cake ingredients together until moistened and beat an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Meanwhile prepare sauce. In a small saucepan, combine ingredients and heat until butter melts. Do not bring mixture to a boil.

When cake is cooked, remove from oven and with a long-tined fork, pierce hot cake 10 to 12 times. Slowly pour hot butter sauce over cake. Cool in pan 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from pan and serve.

This recipe serves 10 to 12.

Comments: This comes from the Arlington neighborhood. A nice addition to the butter sauce is a sprinkling of Amaretto or rum before pouring over cake.
