This is a totally awesome recipe!  If you're trying to diet, don't make this.  It's irresistible!

Cake
1 cup butter
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cups sugar
5 eggs (beaten)
3 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup milk
1 tsp rum extract
1 tsp butter extract
1 tsp coconut extract
1 tsp lemon extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp maple extract
1 tsp almond extract

Drizzle
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1 tsp rum extract
1 tsp coconut extract
1 tsp butter extract
1 tsp lemon extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp maple extract
1 tsp almond extract

In a large bowl cream together the butter, oil and sugar until light and fluffy.  Beat in eggs.  Combine flour and baking powder.  Stir flavorings and extracts into milk.  Add flour mixture to creamed mixture alternately with milk.  Beat after each addition.  Spoon mixture into greased and floured bundt pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour or until a wooden pick inserted in the middle comes out clean.    Cool for 10 - 15 minutes in pan and then remove to wire rack.

Make seven Flavor Drizzle - In a saucepan combine the sugar, water and extracts.  Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm.  Pour over cooled cake.  Pour slowly so the drizzle can be absorbed by the cake.
