Apricot Nectar Cake
1 yellow cake mix
3/4 cup vegetable oil
6 oz. apricot nectar(I buy 12oz can and freeze the rest)
4 egg yolks(save the egg whites)
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 3oz. package orange Jello
Put all the above ingredients in bowl and mix for 5 minutes at low speed. Beat the egg whites until very stiff, then fold them into the mixture.
Bake in greased/nonstick tube pan, 35-40 minutes at 350. Remove cake while still hot and frost.
Frosting:
Mix lemon juice and powdered sugar to make a thick, but pourable mixture and drizzle in over the cake.

Rum Cake
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 Duncan Hines Butter Flavor Cake mix
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup rum
4 eggs
Preheat oven to 325. Grease and flour bundt pan --- a nonstick pan will work, too. Put pecans in the bottom. Mix ingredients in order and beat 3 mintues. Pour into pan & bake 45-50 minutes. Remove from oven and glaze while cake is still in the pan.
Glaze:
1/4 lb margarine --- 1 stick
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup rum --- you can be a little generous with this. LOL
1 cup sugar
Put all ingredients in a saucepan & boil 2-3 minutes. Use toothpick or match(I use an icepick) to make holes in cake. Gradually pour over the cake. Let cake sit for 30 minutes, then remove.
