Preheat oven to 350\u00b0. Spray and flour 12-cup fluted pan (I use Baker's Joy).

In a mixing bowl, beat your brown sugar, water, oil, molasses and eggs for 3 minutes.
Stir in the combined dry ingredients mixing well.

As the cake is baking, combine the buttersauce ingredients in a saucepan over low heat, heating until butter melts.
Prick hot cake deeply every inch with a long-tined fork.
Spoon hot sauce over hot cake in pan. Let stand 30 minutes, invert onto serving plate. Serve warm or cool.
