GLAZE
For the cake, in a large mixer bowl, mix together cake mix pudding mix, eggs, water, extract, oil and amaretto on low speed. Beat on high speed for 2 minutes. Generously grease the bottom and sides of a bundt or tube pan and springle bottom with nuts. Pour in cake batter and bake at 325~ for 50-60 minutes or until a tester inserted in center comes out clean. For the glaze, in a saucepan, combine all ingredients and heat on medium heat to melt butter and sugar. Stir frequently. Bring to a boil and boil for 2-3 minutes. Let baked bake cool in pan for 10 minutes on a rack. Remove from pan and place on rack that has been placed over a deep dish. Gradually spoon hot glaze over warm cake, a few tablespoons at a time, so cake will absorb all of the glaze.
