Grease bundt pan heavily and add ½ cup chopped walnuts to the bottom of the pan. Pour mix over nuts. Bake 350℉ (180℃) for 35 minutes. (check by poking cake to be sure done)
Make the Syrup after the cake is done. Combine ¼ cup water, 1 cup sugar, 1 stick butter and ¼ cup Brandy (or Rum). Over high heat melt and boil 1 minute.
