Re: (...)
Did anyone make this cake without the rum? I was thinking of making it for tomorrow, but there will be lots of kids and just didn't want to make it with the rum.
Any thoughts?

But what a way to get them to calm down after all that sugar
Extra Rum I say!
The rum seems to be just for flavor. I bet you could get away without it. Might have to adjust the liquid a tad. What about those syrups everyone puts in their coffee? You could get a different flavor. But you'll have to watch the sugar that you don't make to too sweet.
I'd just omit it and add the 1/2 cup of extra liquid.

I always make it without the rum because of the kid thing and it's always wonderful.
Oh, and I did add the extra 1/2 c. of liquid.

I never used rum in it. It is the best cake ever.
