Transfer to medium-sized mixing bowl. Stir in rum; chill 1 to 2
hours. Beat with electric mixer until stiff and thick. Cut cake in
half crosswise. Place 1 piece of cake on small cookie sheet. Top
with chocolate filling; spread to form even layer 1-1/2 inches thick.
Top with remaining cake layer. Chill at least 1 hour.

Prepare frosting. Combine corn syrup, water and butter in small
saucepan. Bring to boil; cook until butter melts. Remove from heat.
Add chocolate bits; stir until chocolate melts. Cool at room
