Puerto Rico Soaking Syrup

1. My favorite method is to poke each layer with a toothpick all over the top, then pour the syrup on top.

2. In a saucepan dissolve the sugar with the water, bring to a boil, cover and remove from heat, let the syrup cool to room temperature.

3. Add the 2-tablespoons of rum and stir.

4. Allow it to set up well before finishing the cake- this will take about 2 hours.
